- Page Summary:
- New York Judgment and Lien Search title abstracting information in
A judgment and lien search is accomplished in one of a few ways. One type of judgment and lien search is
property specific and identifies the current owner(s) of a real property parcel, and includes property tax information, unsatisfied mortgages, and other unsatisfied encumbrances against the property; judgment, liens, UCCs, etc. This is also know as a
current owner search. Another type of judgment and lien search, offered below, is a '
name search', whereby the abstractor
searches a person's or business' name in a specific county for any unsatisfied mortgages, liens, judgments, UCC filings, and taxes on any properties in that county. This type of name search is also used for a HOA (Home Owners Association), COA (Condominium Owners Association), or POA (Property Owners Association). Name searches can also be done statewide for both businesses and individuals, but are more refined as to the types of encumbrances searched, such as UCCs. A judgment and lien title report typically takes
5 to 7 business days to prepare, but will vary depending on the type of judgment and lien search requested, county records access, and abstract complexity. New York Title Report provides
