By: As Its: Date: INFORMATION NOTICE TO OWNER ABOUT CONSTRUCTION LIENS This is not a lien. It is provided to you by your contractor to inform you about construction lien laws. An Information Notices is not a reflection upon the integrity or credit standing of your contractor. This Information Notice explains the construction lien law and steps you can take to protect your property from a valid lien. As a homeowner,you should read this Information Notice carefully. This Information Notice is required to be given if you contract for residential construction or remodeling or if you are buying a new home,at any time the contract price exceeds$1,000.00. Under Oregon law,your contractor and others who provide labor, materials,equipment or service to your project may be able to claim payment from your property if they have not been paid. That claim is a construction lien. If your contractor does not pay subcontractors, employees, or rental equipment or material suppliers or does not make other legally required pay- ments,those who are owed money may lien your property for payment. It is in your best interest to verify that all bills are paid, even if you have paid your contractor in full. If you occupy or will occupy your home,persons who supply materials,labor,equipment or services ordered by your contractor are permitted by law to record a lien against your property only if they have sent you a timely Notice of Right to Lien (which is different from this Information Notice) before or during construction. If you enter into a contract to buy a newly-built,partially-built or newly-remodeled home,a lien may be claimed even though you have not received a Notice of Right to a Lien. If you do not occupy the building,a Notice of Right to Lien is not required prior to filing a lien. Common Questions and Answers about Construction Liens Can someone record a construction lien even if I pay my contractor? Yes. Anyone who has not been paid for labor, material,equipment,or services on your project and has provided you with a valid Notice of Right to Lien (where one is required) has the right to record a construction lien. What is a Notice of Right to Lien? In certain circumstances persons with whom you do not have a contract are required to send you a Notice of Right to Lien if they intend to protect their construction lien rights against your project. It is sent to you for your protection. It is not a construction lien. What should I do when I receive a Notice of Right to Lien? Don't ignore it. Find out what arrangements your contractor has made to pay the sender of the Notice of Right to Lien. When do construction liens need to be recorded? In Oregon,construction liens generally need to be recorded within 75 days from the date the proj- ect was substantially completed or 75 days from the date that the lien claimant ceased to provide labor, material,equipment or services,whichever is earlier. To enforce a lien,the lien holder must file a lawsuit in a proper court within 120 days of the date the lien was recorded. HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF When you pay your contractor for materials, labor,equipment or services,you may wish to consider making your checks payable jointly to the con- tractors and whomever sent you a Notice of Right to Lien. You can ask for a statement of the reasonable value of the materials, labor,equipment or services provided to your project from everyone who sends you a Notice of Right to Lien. If the information is not provided in a timely manner,the sender of the Notice of Right to Lien may still be able to record a construction lien,but is not entitled to attorney fees. Consider using the services of an escrow agent to protect your Interests. Consult your attorney to find out whether your escrow agent will protect you against liens when disbursing payments. Contact a title company about obtaining a title policy that will protect you from construction lien claims. Ask your contractor, lending institution and architect what precautions,if any,they will take to protect your project from construction liens. Get evidence that those who sent you a Notice of Right to Lien have been paid or have waived all their construction lien rights. Have a written contract with your contractor. A written contract is required for projects greater than $2,500 and highly recommended for projects less than that. Review the Consumer Notification form (ORS 701)which your contractor must provide to you before work is begun on your residential project. Call the Construction Contractors Board (CCB)and confirm that your contractor is registered. The law requires all contractors to be registered with the CCB or licensed by the Landscape Contractors Board (LCB). You can contact both Boards at the same address and phone number. Call the Board's 24-hour automated contractor inquiry phone line to determine if your contractor is registered (toll free: 1-888-366-5635; Salem area: 378-4610) or call the agency at 503-378-4621 ext.4900. Should you have a dispute with your contractor,you may be able to file a claim with the CCB or LCB and be reimbursed in whole or in part from the contractor's bond. For more details about help available through the agency,write to the CCB or LCB at PO Box 14140,Salem, OR 97309-5052 or call them at 503-378-4621 ext.4910, Consult an attorney.

Each category has different surety bond and liability.
