Welfare liens howl over Pennsylvania residents and hopeful buyers
The state requires welfare recipients to place liens on homes to repay benefits from sale proceeds, a policy with 40 year old roots. About 123000 liens worth roughly 515 million exist, with 5700 liens added last year, and critics call the department a major slumlord while supporters argue it discourages welfare dependence. A bill to repeal the lien requirement moves to floor action, but the Shapp administration estimates a $14 million annual revenue impact, sparking a fiscal debate in Harrisburg.
