## What do you think? Question:

I manage a 20-unit condo building in Minneapolis, MN. We have two units that are seriously behind in dues. The attorney we hired doesn't seem to understand our sense of urgency, and I'm wondering if there's more I can be doing to move things along. 7 weeks ago I sent official [demand letters](https://www.condoassociation.com/collections/tabid/88863/Default.aspx) each of the units 30 days to pay in full or offer the association a payment plan. Neither responded, at which time I got our attorney involved. She asked if we want to proceed with a [lien](https://www.condoassociation.com/blog/tabid/19257/Default.aspx?Tag=Liens) or move forward with foreclosure, and we opted for [foreclosure](https://www.condoassociation.com/blog/tabid/19257/bid/9662/How-to-Avoid-HOA-and-Condo-Association-Foreclosures.aspx). Nothing has been done since. I have an email in to my friend who works at a title company to ask her advice, but in the meantime, any suggestions? Thanks, Faith
