I'm in a tenant in common (NJ) deed and want to sell, but other party has personal leins on house?

Question

What are my options?

Answer 1

What does your contract say? You DID create a contract with the other party when you bought the house, didn't you?

Liens have to be settled before or at the sale, most likely.

You can go to court to force sale of the house, and lien payoff would come from the other party's proceeds, no? That's in your contract, right?

Answer 2

The house can not be sold with the liens.   It does not really matter where they came from, but they have to be paid.
