Wonky Liens Affecting Title: Real Estate Hot Topics - In-Person

Stay ahead of the curve in today’s increasingly complex real estate landscape with this timely and practical program focused on liens that can complicate—or derail—clear title. Attendees will dive into a series of in-depth sessions addressing HOA liens, equitable liens, judgment liens, and attorney liens—each examining how these “wonky” liens arise, how they impact title, and best practices for identifying, prioritizing, and resolving them.

 

Through real-world examples and practical insights, presenters will discuss common pitfalls, recent developments, and strategies to protect clients and transactions when lien issues surface. Whether you advise buyers, sellers, lenders, HOAs, or title companies, this program will enhance your ability to spot problems early and navigate lien-related challenges with confidence.

 

Join your colleagues  for a morning of substantive education, expert perspectives, and valuable networking designed to sharpen your real estate practice and help ensure clean, marketable title.
