Can I sell my property if it has liens against it?

Asked 5 months ago
Yes, it is possible to sell a property that has liens against it, but there are specific factors to consider. Liens represent a legal claim against your property, often stemming from unpaid debts such as mortgages, property taxes, or contractor bills. When selling a property with liens, the seller is typically responsible for clearing the liens before or at the time of closing. This means that the seller may need to pay off the lien during the sale process to transfer clear title to the buyer. There are occasions when buyers may acquire a property with a lien, but generally, they want assurance that they will not inherit any existing debts. Therefore, sellers should consult with real estate professionals or attorneys to understand their options and obligations regarding outstanding liens. Georgia Home Buyers can provide guidance on how to navigate the sale of a property with liens and what steps may be necessary.
