Why get a municipal lien search done on your property?
Identifying and addressing issues related to open/expired permits, code violations, or liens on your property can give you the confidence that any future real estate transaction will go that much more smoothly. Property owners that are not aware of or have not addressed these issues may have a closing delayed or deal lost.
Having a municipal lien search conducted will give you peace of mind that your property is in good standing. If you choose to sell your home, this peace of mind can extend to your real estate professional, as well as potential buyers. For investors interested in a property, your peace of mind comes from due diligence to ensure there are no hidden financial costs.
A property clear of permit, code, tax, or other municipal liens protects you from any potential legal action. For certain types of insurance, lenders may require your property have a clear municipal lien search. Taking this simple step helps protect property owners as well as potential buyers/investors.
