UCC Filing Fee (Inquiry, removal, solicitation)

Information

UCC filing termination prior to the conversion to Launch

General Information/Inquiry

  • A UCC lien is a lien that is placed on the solar system, not the home itself.

  • When a homeowner wants to refinance their home, they need to have the lien removed.

  • Lien removal requests can only be processed if they come from the homeowner or the title company.

  • A UCC lien is also referred to as a ‘subordination’ or ‘fixture filing’ which is a UCC filing that is recorded in the real property records, which then turns the security interest into a lien against the actual property where the fixture is located.

  • EverBright files the UCC lien after M2 completion.

  • Homeowners should never be billed for the UCC filing fee. Lien Solutions (a ‘contracted entity under EverBright/Launch’) files all of the UCC filings with the state and local agencies on EverBright’s behalf.

UCC Lien Removal Fee Requests

  • In the event that Account Servicing or the homeowner makes an inquiry about waiving UCC Fees:

Hello,

We are not able to waive the $350 fee associated with the removal of the UCC lien due to the county and processor charging a fee for administering UCC liens.

Thank you,

[Agent Name]

UCC Filing Fee solicitation

  • If a homeowner receives a bill regarding the UCC fee and registration, it is most likely a third-party solicitation and should be marked as such.

  • If it is not marked, follow the steps below:

  1. Ask the homeowner to send a photo of the letter to support@myeverbright.com.

  2. The agent will review the ticket with the Nehemiah @ EverBright or Eric Suarez to determine if further action is necessary. If determined to be a solicitation, reply to the homeowner:

Hello (homeowner name),

As indicated in the document, this is a third-party solicitation. You are not required to use their services and may disregard this notice.

Regards,
(agent name)
