Child Support Lien after foreclosure - California

Mike Jones
Posted

Recently my title officer told me to look out for child support liens as they no longer get cleared after foreclosure.  Apparently it doesn't matter if the lien is filed after the recording to the 1st TD (like property taxes or IRS liens).  Has anyone experienced this recently and what was the outcome?  I wonder if this is only specific to my title company.  If the kid is 3 years old he claims I could be on the hook for 15 years of child support payments if the supporting parent doesn't pay up.....talk about a nightmare!

Replied

Thank you Darius and Ron for the replies.  Like you Ron I hadn't heard of that either.  Haven't been doing it as long as you (about 11 years) but it was my title rep that told me that (I said title officer in my original post in error).  He said there was a recent court decision and the title company had to pay the claim.  I just called my title officer for clarification and he confirmed the lien should be wiped as long as it was recorded after the 1st TD.  Sounds like my title rep might have been confused about the details.  The case probably wasn't related to a trustee sale.
