Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A mechanic's lien is a legal claim against a property that has been improved or repaired. In this case, Devin would file a mechanic's lien on Cal's real estate as security for the unpaid debt of $500 related to the roof repair contract. Option A is incorrect because personal property is not typically used as security for a mechanic's lien. Option C is incorrect because the $500 owed under the contract is the debt being secured, not the security itself. Option D is incorrect because the contract is not a physical asset that can be used as security, but rather a legal document outlining the terms of the agreement.
