WHAT OTHER TYPES OF LIENS THAT I CAN USE
I'm being told a story and I can't understand how she thinks she can save the house. If I'm being told the truth, she claims she has 2 foreclosures. One is from her company they used their house as collateral. She says they called in loan. She also claims she is in foreclosure on her personal mortgage. From my understanding she owes 55 thousands on the mortgage and the business loan was a half a million. She is in forbearance. She says she's is getting it until March wich my understanding is it ends December all home covid programs end. We live in long Island NY. So how is this house savable and also it will be left to her only child . Won't her get the lien debt if the house is willed to him? Please help me know the truth as it affects my life in unimaginable ways. Thank you.

Hi there. I have been working as a part time project manager for a company which has a property facing foreclosure and auction, possibly bankruptcy within 30 days.

I built a building on my brothers property which includes his house. His house is going to be foreclosed on. I am in N.C. Can I put a lien or something on his house so when it sales, I get some kind of money for the building i built on his property. Or i have I just lost out, a lot of people warned me not to build it, but I had a business in it for decades, and I really didnt have a better choice at the time.He dosent owe me money on this building I built, so we could store and work on old cars in.It was a mutual agreement. My brother will not work now, and gave up on his house, and now a foreclosure, leaving me with nothing, I am in the process of selling everything now.It would be nice to recoup some of the money I have invested in his property. I dont think the bank he has even knows we built the building, It was my loan on the building and has long been paid off, no money is owed on it.What options do I have. Thank you.
I did a bathroom remodel and the day before the job was finished the clients intentionally damaged their property. They chipped the tub and smashed the front step of their house claiming I had chipped the tub and run over their steps with my truck. I have lots of photos which prove these ladies damaged their own property and I told them I will not be scammed. There was 2 hours of work left and they kicked us out and did not let us finish the job. They are now trying to extort us. They have refused to pay the balance of work and demand refund for all labor and materials included in their project. I recorded a lien and believe that they will challenge it and file a complaint against my license. How do I file suit to get paid?
I sent all necessary documents to file lien how should i find legal representation to enforce the lien
Hello, I filed a lien at the property located at 3534 Arcadia in Evanston, IL. The owner of the property has had it under contract for months now and we have agreed he owes me the amount I liened the home for. My frustration is very high as it's a lot of money. Can I do anything to make him pay me? Or can I foreclose on the property or something along these lines? I have been completely taken advantage of and now this investor is holding over 60k hostage, which I do not want to wait on any longer.
I was a tenant with a lease with the option to buy contract with the original owner of a property which was sold to a 3rd party at a franklin County Ohio sheriff sale without my knowledge after I had completed renovations of the property. I filed liens against the original owner, the foreclosing bank, and the 3rd party sheriff sale buyer.
I was sued by the 3rd party buyer for fraud, based on the standard language/statement on the lien affidavit that I had a contract with the 3rd party. I lost on the summary judgement pleadings, on the fraud claim. Should I appeal the ruling?
