Can a lien be done when both agreed

[antnida]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA

One party (relative, does not want to be on title) let the other borrow some money for a house, borrower agreed to have a lien placed on the house until the loan is paid off. Is there a way for the party that lend the money to place a lien on the house if a promissory note was done and notarized?

Thanks

In California, any lien, other than a mechanic's lien, placed on real property requires permission of the court.
