TexasWe sell materials. Our customer was a sub of a developer that buys lots and builds spec homes that become homesteads to their buyers. Sub defaults. Job is in May. We send 2nd and 3rd month letters July 15. We file the lien affidavit September 15 (no mention of homestead). We learn the developer sold the house in August before our lien affidavit was filed in September. Can we enforce the lien? If so, who are the proper defendants? If not, would it matter if the August sale wasn't reflected in the online property records when we filed our lien in September? What is our best strategy to collect?
TexasWe are in the process of getting new procedures in place for our notices/liens.

Texasl'm a GC in Texas. I have a sub that was fired from a job for inability to perform the job. Given multiple chances to correct his mistakes but could not remedy his own mistakes. Now he has filed a pre-lien with us and the homeowner for $140,000 more than he was hired to complete. He never sent us an invoice, for the work he completed in which he was overpaid on per our contract already. He also hasn't sent us any details regarding his $140K Claim. His pre-lien notice is very vague. Question : Is a sub required to submit an invoice to the GC prior to making or filing a lien? Question 2: Would purchasing a surety bond for the homeowner prevent or "shield" the homeowner in event he files a frivolous lien? This would be during construction.
TexasHi, We where asked to wait three weeks to receive payment. That time is now. We have sent a notice to lien that client received Monday past. I want to send a short message to client that payment is now very past due. I'm being advised not to as it is becoming a legal matter. Should i send the message via text?
TexasI am a subcontractor and had recently completed work on a flip property by an individual. He paid me the initial draw by check showing the name BTSN Enterprises, but I am showing that he has the property listed by the name Huggins Realty. I submitted my demand and now have moved forward with the lies process but it is showing for BTSN and not Huggins. The address is correct. Is this going to prevent the lies being placed?
