Re: Personal Check

You would have to sue the debtor. Once a judgment is entered in your behalf a lien against real estate is possible if the property is in the debtor's name alone. If he is married and holds title as husband and wife (tenants by entirities)it will not be subject to the lien.

Suggest you consult with legal counsel.
