If your father paid for your house but it is deeded in your name can he put a lien on the house now to get his money back?

Answer

That depends on what other contractual arangements might have been made. The deed does prove ownership. However, in some states if you had a verbal agreement for repayment and your father can prove it, he can collect his money. And obviously if you have any agreement in writing concerning the property, he can indeed place a lien on it.
