Mechanic lien on place on property after I purchased. I was unaware that any work was not paid for.

South DakotaMechanics Lien

I purchased a property on August 9th. The owner had work done to the property that they thought was covered by insurance. The insurance company didnt cover the work. The contractor filed a lien against the property after I purchased it and I was unaware at the time of purchase that there was anything unpaid. What is the recourse for something like this.

Assuming you went through a title company, reach out to your title insurance they may provide coverage in a case like this. If the seller gave you a warranty deed then they will be liable for the lien. Reach out to a local attorney
