Lien Release

A lien release is an official document that removes a legal claim against a property or asset, indicating that the debt or obligation tied to that property has been satisfied. For example, if you borrow money to buy a house, the lender may place a lien on the property. Once you pay off the loan, the lender provides a lien release, confirming you own the property free of their claim. This document is important for establishing clear ownership and can be necessary for future transactions involving the property.
