You will only be able to remove the judgment lien by paying it at this point unless the judgment lien is less than a year old. If so, you might be able to get back to court under certain conditions. You should discuss with an attorney to see if this would be a possibility for you. Otherwise you will have to pay for the lien out of the sale proceeds or from your own pocket.
