Prelim mistakenly filed on address accross the street from actual job. We caught the error and filed the lien on the correct address.
Is there a conflict if the pre lim was filed on the wrong address?
CaliforniaHotel Project (Commercial) - Owner signs "percentage of construction" proposal using the AiA Document B102, Standard form of agreement between owner and architect. (2007)
Scope creep starts at 2,000 sf, and finishes at 5,000 sf. A $10,000 difference in professional fees from 2k SF to 5k SF. All 5,000 sf permitted by City of Tacoma.
They are refusing to pay for the final of the initial 2,000 sf draw and the minor additional "sideways" services.
I understand from RCW that I need not file a notice of lien claim. (Direct contract with owner)
Do you agree?
Does this seem like an easy lien to proceed with?
Thanks,
LV Architect
WashingtonWhat would it cost me to file five liens, and 2) can I still file a lien in Kansas since I did not get an intent to lien signed ahead of time?
I have two designers that owe us on five different properties.
KansasI completed a water damage wok for a home, the rebuild is still in progress by the homeowner with my assistance in writing the scope of work, going over the scope of work with the insurance company and the homeowner. Last week I was at the house verifying measurments for the homeowner and insurance company, I need to give them a pre-lien notice. I should of given the pre-lien notice What work must I perform at the house to qualify for "Permanent Changes" or which of the following will qualify me to give a pre-lien?
Change outlet covers?
Take more measurements?
Or what else would qualify to pre-lien the house (I think the pre-lien must be filed within 10 days of last work?)
MinnesotaI sent a preliminary notice (submitted & mailed) to my customer & owner however, the job is complete. What does retracting a preliminary notice do?
Californiathere is no contractor the owner has about 300 properties and he will not pay
FloridaI am attempting to file a lien on a commercial property in the state of MN. To file a commercial lien in Minnesota, to the best of my knowledge a pre-lien notice is not required.
I am unable to proceed in the questions section, because it asks the following, Date Lien Claimants Notice Served, which I do not have. Please advise
MinnesotaWe've already sent a Notice to Contractor in GA for this job that originally listed as a $100,000 contract. Over the months the job has now increased to almost a million dollars in supplies. Do we need to send any other type of document or notice to be able to protect this large change in amounts? We also didn't file a Notice of Lien Rights, would that have any impact in our lien rights for this?
GeorgiaWhat happens if I have a $100,000.00 contract and we almost always have change orders, should I account for the estimated changes or just submit the prelim at $100,000.00?
CaliforniaI'm a subcontractor, that is doing work for Utopia Development. We did not file a preliminary notice since we finish the project right away and the customer had told us he will pay right away. Well, it has been over 4 months and we have not received payment for that project and two more that followed. What can we do since they are avoiding to pay?
CaliforniaI work for a subcontractor for a job, in which we used a supplier who requires a 25% deposit on materials. We billed the GC for the deposits, and I sent out preliminary notices at that time. However, we have only just started working at the site, over two months after sending the preliminary notices. Do I need to re-send the pre-lims, or will the earlier ones protect us sufficiently?
CaliforniaI have an updated prelim notice which was originally emailed on 1-6-2020. I am not sure where is was emailed. There is a slight change in the owner address.
CaliforniaWe're in a bit of a sticky situation! We had 4 contracts total for a large AZ commercial job. We sent a prelien for the 2nd and 3rd contracts, but not the 1st or 4th. Everything that we are owed is for retainage or change orders, but I'm worried that I can't file a lien for funds I didn't prelien. Should I have sent updated preliens for the change orders? Can I file a lien without having sent preliens for the total owed?
Arizonaa General Contractor hired me as a sub for 3 different trades on a commercial project and I hired a sub for each trade, does my sub send the prelim notice to me, and I send to owner and general? If my sub sent a prelim to the owner with the contract amount I had with them, my prelim will have a different contract amount, so how will that work?
CaliforniaBlinds manufacturer in California. We sign subcontracts for projects that sometimes do not start until 2-3 months later. If I sign a contract and the project does not start until 2-3 monts later can I file a prelim notice now instead of having to wait?
Our office gets many contracts and for me to keep adding reminders for each individual project can be tedious.
