What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Arkansas
I live in Arkansas and I took care of my chronically ill mother for several years
until she died last Nov. in 2003. After her death, I started looking for a job.
The only job that I could find is a part-time, minimum-wage job since I had
been out of the work force for so long and do not have a college degree. I
make about $1000 a month less than the amount that my mother had been
drawing that we both had been barely making it on. We were living in a
fairly nice 3-bedroom house that my dad paid off in 1995, one year before he
died unexpectedly from a heart attack. I knew that I could not afford to pay
all the monthly house bills and also buy food and medicine for myself, so I
was really glad that my boyfriend of 6 years invited me to move in with him
after my mom died. I packed up some of my things, and just left the house
sitting there. Recently, my aunt and uncle from Texas, (the only family I have
left) offered to put up some of their own money to get my house fixed up so
that I can sell it. (The house has been in a state of disrepair ever since my
dad died.) I really appreciate my aunt & uncle helping me, but I do have some
concerns. My mother was in the hospital for 2 weeks before she died, and had
a lot of bills, and I never was sure if Medicare and her insurance paid all of the
bills. Also, I have had several medical problems myself the last few years, and
some of my bills got turned over to various collection agencies because I did
not have the money at the time to pay them in full (and I still don't). My
question for the Forum is this: Is there a website on the Internet where I can
find out if there is a lien on my house? If no such website exists, is there a
discrete way to find out if there are any liens on my house and how much
they are? I certainly hope that there are no liens on my house, because the
money that I get from selling my house is all that I have unless I can find a
much better paying job.
Sincerely,
