What is a property lien?

A property lien is a legal claim placed on a home or land by a creditor when the owner owes money. Liens can be placed for unpaid property taxes, contractor work, lawsuits, or mortgages.
When a lien exists, it can delay or block a sale until the debt is resolved. That’s why checking for liens is critical before buying or transferring ownership of any property.
