A Palouse region of the Pacific Northwest supplier of ready-mix concrete asked our TRADITION LIEN SERVICE division to record a IDAHO Claim of Lien for non-payment for materials provided for an existing residence in Moscow, ID within Latah County. According to WIKIPEDIA Latah County is the only county in the U.S. established by an act of Congress; it was originally part of Nez Perce County, which was reluctant to lose its most populated area.
A lien should be recorded with the County Recorder in the county where the improved property is located. A recorded copy should be mailed by Certified Mail or personal delivery within twenty-four (24) hours to the improved property’s Owner, Agent or Trustee along with the other legal parties for improvement (Customer, Lender/Surety).
The Latah County Recorder’s fees to record are as follows: $10 for 1st page and $3.00 for each additional page (document size 8-1/2″ x 11″). Make checks payable to LATAH COUNTY RECORDER and they will accept out-of-state business checks. Actual recording by mail is one (1) business day. The original document will be mailed back the same day after recording. Be sure to send a self-addressed stamped envelope.
Claimants must begin a lien foreclosure action within six (6) months from the date the Claim of Lien was recorded for the project.
