Westchester Judgment Searches Belong in Due Diligence

Keep a Westchester tax bill separate from judgment and lien records. The White Plains office and Westchester Records Online can be searched for money judgments. They also cover mechanic’s liens, broker’s liens, and notices of pendency.

Records are filed by name. A result can show the first filing and a later satisfaction or renewal. Search each needed name before a closing or loan.

A state tax warrant has the same force as a civil judgment. Search for it with the state warrant tool. Keep the names, search date, filings, later updates, state result, and closing papers together.
