We buy properties with water and sewer liens. Get a fresh start.

Understanding Your Situation

Water and sewer liens in Massachusetts are serious. Unlike other debts, municipal liens attach to the property and must be paid before sale. They can grow quickly with interest and penalties, and the city can eventually take your property. These liens also make traditional sales difficult because buyers and their lenders are wary of properties with municipal debt.

Common Issues You May Be Facing

  • Years of unpaid water bills
  • Sewer betterment assessments
  • Combined utility liens
  • Interest and penalties added
  • Lien affecting property sale
  • City threatening foreclosure
