HOA liens, mechanics liens, and municipal liens are recorded every business day. TRELIze delivers them to you — with the lien amount already extracted, the owner’s contact information attached, and every other distress signal on that property already checked.

A property with an active lien is not in a forced sale process. The owner isn’t required to do anything on a timeline. The lien may sit for months or years.
What a lien does tell you is that the owner is under financial pressure — HOA dues they couldn’t pay, a contractor they didn’t pay, city citations they didn’t resolve. Financial pressure makes owners more receptive to offers they might otherwise dismiss. Your call may be the first time selling has crossed their mind.
That’s the opportunity. TRELIze finds it the day it files.
Start Finding Lien Properties Free →TRELIze extracts the actual dollar amount directly from the court filing — including handwritten documents — using AI document scanning. Know the payoff amount before you call so your offer math is ready. No manual courthouse research required.
Each lien type signals something different about the owner and the property. TRELIze identifies the type on every card and gives you specific guidance on what it means and how to approach it.
TRELIze surfaces the creditor name — the HOA, contractor, or city agency that filed the lien. If you need to verify the current payoff amount or understand the lien’s status, you know exactly who to call.
Phone numbers for the property owner, looked up automatically and included at no extra cost. No separate skip trace subscription required.
Appraised value, square footage, bedrooms, bathrooms, year built — automatically matched to every lien filing. Know whether the deal math works before you invest a minute in outreach.
Exterior photo of every property. A mechanic lien for roofing work tells you something about the property’s condition — the Street View photo shows you what you’re working with before you drive by.
TRELIze automatically checks every lien property for additional signals — active probate, foreclosure notice, Equity+, out-of-state owner, mail returned, eviction history. A property with multiple signals stacking is a fundamentally different opportunity than a standalone lien filing.
Lien amount, owner contact, and distress signals — on your phone in seconds.

Filed by a homeowners association for unpaid dues. HOA liens must be resolved at or before closing, so they affect your offer math directly. TRELIze extracts the lien amount and surfaces the HOA name so you can verify the current payoff before you make an offer.
Filed by a contractor for unpaid work — a renovation or repair project that ran out of money. Mechanic liens are often negotiable; contractors regularly settle for less than the face value, especially if work was incomplete or disputed.
Filed by the city for unpaid fees or unresolved code violations — weed abatement, unpaid utilities, demolition orders, or citation penalties. An owner who hasn’t responded to city notices is often disengaged from the property entirely.
Most investors who pursue lien properties don’t know the payoff amount when they make first contact. They call the owner, have a promising conversation, and then spend the next three days researching what the lien actually costs to clear — by which point another investor has moved faster.
TRELIze extracts the lien amount from the actual court filing — including handwritten documents — so your offer math is ready before the conversation starts. You know what the lien costs. You know the appraised value. You know your maximum offer. You walk into every call prepared.
A standalone lien filing is a lead worth monitoring. When it stacks with other signals, it becomes something more urgent.
These combinations sort to the top of your dashboard automatically as hot leads.
Because a lien doesn’t force a sale, your first call to a lien property owner is an introduction — not a negotiation. The owner may not have considered selling. Your offer may be the first time the idea has crossed their mind.
That means patience. That means follow-up. That means staying in the conversation over weeks or months until the owner is ready to move. TRELIze is built for that workflow:
Tap one button on any lien card to add it to your pipeline. Review it weekly, follow up consistently, and export your full list to CSV for your CRM or dialer.
Get a text the same day a new lien files in your target zip codes. Set up to 5 zip codes, choose your preferred alert time. You’ll know about new filings before most investors check their weekly list.
TRELIze tracks every property’s timeline. If a lien property later files a foreclosure notice or gets added to a probate case, the card updates. Lien seeds sometimes grow into urgent situations — TRELIze makes sure you’re still in the conversation.
TRELIze gives you all the deals — not only liens. Sign up and receive all distressed property types: probate cases, foreclosure notices, and trustee sales in addition to lien filings. The best investment opportunities in Houston are often the ones where multiple distress events converge on the same address. TRELIze surfaces those combinations automatically. You see everything. You decide what to pursue.
