Child support lein
Found a property that has a child support lein on it. He is selling it to me for 10k over what he owes it was passed down to him and his brother after their mom passed mortage is still under mom's name I was told . My question is one of the brothers owes about 20k in child support if I buy house what happens. I'm thinking that child support would garnish all his profits or if I buy subject to can the mother owed child support try to make me sell it or does lein follow brothers thanks
Also they are behind on payments and I'm thinking that they might go into foreclosure I was thinking about maybe just waiting and buy it after it gets foreclosed on but then im risking loosing it to somebody I'm open too any ideas how yall would recommend me getting property thanks
