Have you tried to sell your home and only then learned that Palisades Collection, from New Jersey, slapped a judgment lien on your homestead? You're not alone.

The liens are usually not valid since the Texas Constitution doesn't recognize judgment liens as valid on homesteads. However, I notice that many of the liens are in the sub-$3000 range, and I'll bet lots of people just decide to pay up at closing rather than fight a lien they don't understand isn't valid.
