Do I have to renew a lien?

New York

Lien was filed August 15, 2021. How long is it in effect?

1 reply

A properly filed mechanic's lien is in effect for one year from the date of filing. It can be extended for an additional year by filing a notice of extension before the anniversary date of the filing (except for a lien on a single family home, which can only be extended by the court).
