Legal Question in Real Estate Law in California
we are purchasing our first home (in escrow) and discover a lien against me for alcohol treatment i received in 2004. I was poor and unable to pay so the county picked up whatever disability insurance wouldn't pay. apparently i signed an agreement that if i ever owned property i was to pay. what can i do?

Yup. You may need a little extra time, or to borrow a little extra money, but this lien needs to be addressed in a way satisfactory to your house lender.
