Lien Search Form
There are 2 ways in which a lien search can be conducted with regards to City liens.
Search Option 1 allows the user to submit a request to the city where a lien search specialist will research all liens, open permits, active cases, and utility usage on behalf of the applicant. This request provides the most detail. This service requires a $80 non-refundable payment per search (Standard Request / 3-5 business days turnaround). A "Rush Service" can also be requested for a $160 non-refundable fee (Results completed and returned between 1-2 business days).
Search Option 2 allows the user to search city databases on their own. All City lien’s (except utilities) can be searched HERE while open permits can be searched HERE. Utility CCA and usage information can be given verbally by calling lien services at 772-344-4179. There is no fee for this service.
*NOTE: Under Florida law, information regarding properties owned by certain individuals is subject to strict confidentiality. No information is available for these properties. The $80 fee for a lien search is not refundable. Please satisfy yourself that the lien search you wish to request does not relate to a protected property.
**NOTE: A lien search for a confidential property can be request and completed once a consent form is completed and notarized by the owner of the property. Please contact Lien Services for this form.
