We are renewing our Home Equity Loan (we only have a few thousand remaining on it). The title search came back, to show that a debt collection agency put a $14,000 lien on our home, based on some debt of my husband's.
I have no idea how that happened. We had a couple of minor bills that we paid. DH's credit score is in the 700's. Wouldn't we have to be informed by certified mail that a large lien would be issued?
DH has a fairly common name. The loan officer seems to think that the debt might belong to another person with a similar name. He is doing more research, but won't get back to us until Monday.
DH and I are both worried. Even if the debt isn't DH's how can we reverse the lien?
And of course, this happens on a Friday. Anybody have any other ideas?
