By the time the lawsuit was said and done, the ARV of the property had gone up to $600-650K - a WHOPPING ~15% appreciation.

I can't believe there isn't a massive lawsuit yet against the government.Account Closed  I thought the same, but re-read it and I think the poster was more expressing surprise that for a state as progressive as California, they've never had a woman as governor or sign a bill into law.

That won't stop somebody from naming you and every LLC on a lawsuit, but its one strucutre. 

Theoretically, having the LLC own the property and one of its members be responsible for the note is co-mingling of interests so could impact the integrity of the LLC in a lawsuit. 

His attorney should ask the court for a freeze on the proceeds of the sale subject to a lawsuit.   

Those are the future lawsuits waiting to happen.I not sure if Pace Morby is telling people that they can be sued for up to 3 years usually, for contracts and 6 years for Subject to, but he should be. 

These lawsuits run around a year and a half and can cost upwards of $50,000 to fight with no guarantee of winning. 

Small claims in WA is limited to $10,000 https://www.courts.wa.gov/news...Your best option is to contact the attorney general's office and file a complaint https://fortress.wa.gov/atg/fo...and then write the contractor and nicely say that you have determined that they have wrongfully filed a lien against the property, you have filed a complaint with the attorney general and if they don't remove the lien immediately you will contact an attorney about filing a slander of title lawsuit. 

If there is a problem, a lawsuit will cost you $25,000 and two years of fighting it, easily. 

This property was one of my best ones and was done so well and nothing was hidden and now I am getting this nightmare which I plan on defending myself to the fullest Thank you in advanceFirst of course, you did your flip inside an LLC and have umbrella insurance in case this kind of thing should occur.Next, a demand letter is not a lawsuit.
