Re: Condominium Lien

You should first check your condo bylaws to see if there are established rules regarding what the condo Board must do before a lien can be placed on the property. If there is a pre-filing notice requirement, you may have grounds to challenge the lien. Ultimately, though, they'll be able to lien the property, so you'll have to pay the fees to get the lien removed.
