Best Answer

In any state, an association can file a lien on a property, usually as a last resort, in order to collect unpaid monies owed to the association by the owner.

Read your governing documents to determine the steps the association must take in advance of filing a lien -- the owner is owed due process -- and these steps are set out there.

When it's appropriate, work with your association-savvy attorney to file the proper type of lien on the title for the amount owed, including interests and fees.
