NOTICE OF MECHANICS LIEN

ATTENTION!

Upon the recording of the enclosed MECHANIC’S LIEN with the county recorder’s office of the

county where the property is located, your property is subject to the filing of a legal action

seeking a court-ordered foreclosure sale of the real property on which the lien has been

recorded. That legal action must be filed with the court no later than 90 days after the date

the Mechanic’s Lien is recorded.

The party identified in the Mechanic’s Lien may have provided labor or materials for

improvements to your property and may not have been paid for these items. You are

receiving this notice because it is a required step in filing a Mechanic’s Lien foreclosure action

against your property. The foreclosure action will seek a sale of your property in order to pay

for unpaid labor, materials, or improvements provided to your property. This may affect your

ability to borrow against, refinance, or sell the property until the Mechanic’s Lien is released.

BECAUSE THE LIEN AFFECTS YOUR PROPERTY, YOU MAY WISH TO SPEAK WITH YOUR

CONTRACTOR IMMEDIATELY OR CONTACT AN ATTORNEY, OR FOR MORE INFORMATION
