If you have already pre-liened the work of improvement that you were working on as a general contractor in accordance with your state's laws, then you can then record the mechanic's lien on this property and then bring a legal action to foreclose upon it.I suggest that you first consult with an attorney that practices construction law to make sure that you have properly pre-liened the property that you were working on as a licensed contractor if you cannot resolve the dispute with the property owner over payments owed you.
