We bought a house in Nov. 2004 A title search was performed on the house and no liens were found. In January a lien was placed on the property for failure to pay a sewer bill from April 2004. In May 2005, another lien was placed on the property for failure to pay sewer bills from Oct 2004. Since these have been turned into liens, we are told we need to pay these, even though we were not the owners when the services were used. Are we responsible to pay these liens or is someone else legally obligated to do so? Thanks in advance for your help.
