How do I file a lien against real property for back child support?

It may depend on your state, but I don't know that you can put a lien.

You need to go to court. Let them help you enforce the arrearage owed. They may be able to require the liquidation of assets, depending on the amount owed.

Other likely outcomes would be a garnishment of wages and tax refunds. If the person owns real property, I am assuming they have a traceable job.

Your best bet would be to hire an attorney who specializes in Child Support cases.
