In general, no such minimums exist. While this is the general rule, it is important to consult each states laws to verify that it doesnt have an odd-ball rule restricting small value liens. In theory, therefore, you could file a mechanics lien in almost every state claiming as little as a single dollar.
In Idaho, your company only has 90 days after the delivery of materials or the substantial completion of its work on a project to take legal action. Waiting too long will invalidate your lien. Your company also must file a complaint to foreclose its lien within six months of the date the lien was recorded.
Example of a Mechanics Lien The subcontractor has an agreement with the contractor but not the property owner. The subcontractor can file a mechanics lien if the contractor fails to pay for the concrete they provided for the project. The lien would be against the property, which would force the owner to get involved.
In order to preserve a mechanics lien rights on a residential construction project, a subcontractor must post a preliminary notice on the Mechanics Notice and Lien Registry (MNLR) prior to the balance due is paid to the general contractor or the owner-builder.
