There was a lien on the property that nobody had caught. My lawyer told me that it was a fairly old lien, that it was going to expire within a year, and that it was probably not removed because the parties involved were too lazy to remove it. I made the decision then that I would cover the risk of having the lien enforced since the amount was relatively small relative to the price of the house. Six years later I can confirm that this was the right decision. We are very happy in our house and we hope that you will be as happy in your place as we are in ours.
