Release of Labour Lien Letter

Full Description

A construction lien is a claim made against a property by a contractor or subcontractor who has not been paid for work done on that property. Construction liens are designed to protect professionals from the risk of not being paid for services rendered.

A construction lien makes it difficult or impossible to sell or refinance a property because it makes its title unclear. In a worst-case scenario, it can force a sale of the house to provide the compensation.

If a lien has been taken out on your property or project, and the claim has been resolved, it’s important to document the resolution via letter. Use this template to document that you have paid the labour lien that has been taken out on your property.
