Release of Expired Lien

If it is more than five years past the date of the Retention Agreement it may be released.  To release a lien once the retention period has ended, work with the Lender or with the Beneficiary named on the Retention Agreement.  For forms which show a Beneficiary, please work with our Community Investment Department by sending a copy of the recorded Retention Agreement and forms for release to communityinvestment@fhlbdm.com, or call Community Investment at 800.544.3452, ext. 2400 for assistance.
