Re: Leins
When you refinance, you generally either change the rate or borrow more money. The bank will do a title search that will uncover liens against the property. They will run a credit report and you credit history will be revealed (your rate is a function of your credit score). The lender may require you to pay off some of these loans at closing on the refi.
Good Luck
