California · Lien & Judgment Payoff

Clear the Lien.
Keep the Property.

A recorded tax lien or judgment clouds title and blocks most conventional financing. We lend against the equity to pay it off, so the property is clear and financeable again.

What We Pay Off

Liens That Block a Sale or Refinance

Property Tax Liens
Delinquent county property taxes accrue penalties and eventually lead to a tax sale. Paying them off stops the clock on that process.
Judgments & IRS Liens
A recorded abstract of judgment or federal tax lien attaches to the property and has to be resolved before most sales or refinances can close.
HOA & Mechanics Liens
Association assessments and contractor liens are smaller but sit on title the same way, and can block a transaction until cleared.

Straight Answers

Questions People Ask Us

Do you check credit?

Yes. Credit history is one factor alongside your equity position, the property’s condition, and the exit strategy. Equity carries more weight here than at a bank, but any lender telling you credit is irrelevant is not being straight with you.

What are your rates and fees?

They vary by product and situation, and they’re disclosed in writing before any commitment. Private money costs more than a bank loan. That’s the trade for speed and flexibility. We’ll show you the real numbers before you decide anything.

What if I don’t qualify?

We’ll tell you quickly, and where we can we’ll point you toward what would actually help. If you’re facing foreclosure, free counseling is available from a HUD-approved housing counselor at hud.gov/findacounselor or (888) 995-HOPE.
