Indiana Mechanics Lien Deadlines: The 60- and 90-Day Split, the Personal-Residence Notice, and No-Lien Contracts

Indiana runs two different recording deadlines depending on the project — 60 days for work on a single- or double-family dwelling and 90 days for everything else — and a contractor who applies the wrong one files late.
