Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Oregon

Quiet title

Please reply ASAP as of the up most importance. I placed a construction lein on the property that we rent for repairs of water our contract with the owner stated that after termination of rental the billings would be used in toward a down payment or paid in full. I recieved a letter from the owner attorney stating that the they would be forced to file for a quiet title? What is that? Please reply ASAP as I only have a few days to respond. Thank you.

Re: Quiet title

A quiet title action is used by a property owner to clear liens from the property or to prove ownership.

Your question does not give enough information for me to be able to answer it beyond defining a quiet title action. If you have received a letter from the owner's attorney, you need to consult an attorney immediately for specific advice.

Our office offers low cost initial consultations and we would be happy to assist you if you are in the Portland area.
