Rules on liens and foreclosures vary by state. Is it a deed of trust? Is it a judgment lien? There are many unanswered questions about your situation that will prevent you from getting a meaningful answer in this form.

You should consult another local attorney to discuss your rights and options in more detail.

No, the lien is for when you do sell he will get his money, as it won't close escrow until he does!

depends on what state you are in and what it is for. usually you wont lose your home unless you dont pay for it.
