Liens do not all play by the same rules. Knowing what type of lien appears in the record—and understanding the laws and underwriting guidelines that apply—can be critical to keeping a Texas closing on track.
Join Lisa Beville for the next Learn with Lisa webinar, Voluntary and Involuntary Liens, on Thursday, August 13. During this practical one-hour session, Lisa will review four important lien categories and the issues title professionals should consider when evaluating and curing them.
What the course will cover
- Voluntary liens, including deeds of trust, vendor’s liens, mechanic’s lien contracts and UCC fixture filings
- Involuntary liens, including judgments, child-support liens, mechanic’s lien affidavits, HOA liens and restitution liens
- Federal liens, including federal judgments and federal tax liens
- Governmental liens, including ad valorem taxes and liens involving paving, sanitation, dangerous structures, and water or sewer systems
The discussion will also address statutory limitations and underwriting considerations that can shape the curative process.
