NCS Lien Index 2021 Q4

NCS Lien Index 2021 Q4
The Lien Index jumped to 19.7% in Q4. Throughout Q4, national mechanic’s lien activity rose across all regions, though most significantly in the Midwest. The increased lien activity was as expected, and we anticipate high lien activity to continue into Q1 2022.
