I can be done..I have done it..but it takes a lot of persistence and a lot of wasted energy to find the one motivated guy with the pen..you will also be surprised that guys who turn you down over and over again saying we don't do that..will eventually call you..but like I said it takes a lot of work and even more networking.

Valerie is correct..the amount of the filed lien is immaterial..the total owed to them per their note is what they can collect before you can collect a nickel..accrued interest and penalties and all..

filing the mortgage is easy..could do it yourself or pay and atty a couple hundred..

this is a very risky venture..you should have supreme confidence in the borrower and the project.

good luck
