Let’s say that you buy a home in cash and have 100% paid off. Could you still lose it somehow?

      Also “foreclosure,” not “disclosure.”

        Can you be foreclosed on when you own out right? Seems like mortgage terminology.

          The mortgage is a type of lien. But there are other kinds of liens, such as when a contractor works on your house, and you didn’t pay them, they can place a lien on the property until you pay. In the worst case, a contractor could forclose and force the sale to cover the debt.

          The sentence in question was:

          a lein doesn’t usually lead to disclosure

          I don’t know if “foreclosure” is the right word to describe a forced sale due to a lien, but I do know the person didn’t mean to write “disclosure” instead.
