We have this customer job that is for a property management company that i filed a notice of intent on the main address that we have, however the amount due for this job includes several properties... my questions is, do I need to file notice of intent for each individual address, or can I add all the addresses to one notice?
I'm a little bit confused as to the facts here, but generally speaking a lien notice letter may include work from multiple project sites and be addressed to the same owner and general contractor, if the owner and general contractor are the same for each site. Best practice would be to delineate the amount owed between the work performed at each site within the letter, and to certainly identify each work site by at least its address. Now, the lien affidavit which is filed with the county is specific to each work site because it attaches to that site and is your tool for potentially foreclosing on the owner of the property. So be sure not to "mix and match" the information in lien affidavits between actual projects. And also keep in mind that the deadlines for lien notice letters and lien affidavits themselves will not be the same as between each project just because the general contractor and owner may be the same across the board.
Very best,

Hello,
You want to send notices of intent to lien for each property that you have not been paid on.
When these notices are introduced in court, they will be presented as an Exhibit. It makes everything you are proving much easier to understand if notices, bills, affidavits, and invoices are all presented by project and not as one big nonpayment soup.
