Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
I had a property that was foreclosed upon. I placed a lien on this property. I originally owned this property for 22 years and paid it off in full. Later I took a small loan on the property. That small loan I did not repay. When the property went back to the bank I was never contacted about the lien and it appears they sold it. Is there any way to recoup my lien loss and my equity out of that home, now that it is after the fact?

I am unclear as to what you are saying, which may also be why your question is unanswered. It sounds like you recorded a lien against your own property. If so, the lien is invalid and there is no way to recoup your losses, whatever they are. There would be no statutory or contractual provision for such a lien.
