Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas

Leins

A collection company is telling us that b/c we let a mobile home go back, that they can put a lein on our land and force the sell of that land to collect the debt. Is this true? Can they force the sell of our land? They have offered a settlement, but have only given us a week to get the money. What should we do?

Re: Leins

Can I presume that your land is outside any city limits? Texas law protects a rural homestead. Can I also presume that you have no other homestead property? If so, you may have a good claim for rural homestead property. If you want my assistance in this matter, please contact me by e-mail or 888-243-0560.
