What Is a Lien?
A lien is basically a legal right against a property used as collateral when obtaining a loan or getting a particular service. If you fail to satisfy an underlying debt obligation, your creditor is legally right to seize the property subject to the lien.
What Are the Different Types of Liens?
There are many types of liens, but the most common ones include:
- Bank lien
- Judgment lien
- Mechanic lien
- Real estate lien
- Tax lien
Bank Lien
When you take a loan from the bank to purchase an asset-like vehicle, the seller will be paid using the borrowed money. In turn, the creditor bank will be granted a lien on the vehicle; thus, if you default to pay the loan, the bank can execute the lien and seize your car.
Judgment Lien
It is one placed on assets by a court due to a lawsuit. It helps the defendant to get paid through liquidating the asset in the subject.
Mechanic Lien
If a mechanic repairs your property and you fail to pay for the services rendered, the contractor can sue you in court. The court authorizes them to apply a lien to the property to secure their payment.
Real Estate Lien
If you fail to fulfill a contract, all your real estate property might be seized through a court order. It happens when you obtain a loan or a mortgage to purchase a home; a bank places a lien on the item until you fully pay the mortgage or loan.
Tax Lien
These are liens created by law as opposed to those by contract. They are used by tax authorities to recover property taxes on delinquent taxpayers.
How Does OneMain Financial Lien Affect Your Credit Score, Selling and Buying
Having a lien attached to your property or credit card report is bad news as it affects:
- Assets. A lien is placed on all your properties, including vehicles, houses, and securities. A lien is also applied to future properties you will acquire when the lien is still active.
- Credit. Once the IRS has filed a Notice of Federal Tax Lien, you might not get access to credit services.
- Business. Liens are placed on all your business properties as well as your rights to the business property, such as receivables.
- Bankruptcy. It doesn't matter whether you filed for bankruptcy; a Notice of Federal Tax will still be active even after bankruptcy.
How Do You Eliminate OneMain Financial Lien on Your Own?
If you prefer doing the task by yourself, below are the common ways you can remove a lien. We would like to, however, warn you that you need to be careful and diligent to avoid unfavorable results. Here are your options:
Discharge in Trust
You can have your lien removed by "in trust" through a third party, usually a lawyer. This happens if you have the funds to clear the debt and wish the lien removed before you release the funds.
Court Order
Your lawyer might initiate a court proceeding to have the OneMain lien removed through a court order. Take note that you have to place money in court that equals the value of the lien. In order for the creditor to get the money in the court, they have to remove the lien.
Failure to Prove Lien
You can dispute your debt and ask the claimant to send you a notice to prove the lien. If the creditor does not respond to your request and begin legal action to confirm the lien within the stipulated time, your lien will be removed and will no longer be valid.
Expiry
All liens have an expiry date, and thus, if your lien remains inactive, that is, no legal action by the creditor until it expires. The lien will neither be considered legally enforceable nor valid.
