Michigan Execution Against Property is a legal remedy that allows creditors to collect on a debt. It is a type of writ of execution that allows a creditor to seize a debtor's property to satisfy the debt. Michigan Execution Against Property is used when a court judgment has been granted and the debtor has failed to make a payment. The writ is served to the debtor and the sheriff or other authorized officer will seize the debtor's property as payment toward the debt. There are two types of Michigan Execution Against Property: personal property and real property. Personal property is tangible property such as vehicles, jewelry, furniture, electronics and other items of value. Real property is any land and/or buildings owned by the debtor. Both types of property can be seized and sold by the sheriff or other authorized officer to satisfy the court judgment.
