Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Mechanics Lien Act. Provides that an agreement to waive any right to enforce or claim any lien under the Act where the agreement is in anticipation of and consideration for the awarding of a contract to perform or supply materials for an improvement upon real property is against public policy and unenforceable. Provides for notice requirements for an owner-occupied single-family residence. Provides that if the owners of the property are persons living together, the required statement is conclusively presumed given to each owner if it is given to one of them. Provides that any notice given after 60 days by the subcontractor shall preserve his or her lien but only to the extent that the owner has not been prejudiced by payments made before the receipt of the notice. Provides that a statement that a party is a subcontractor shall not constitute an admission by a lien claimant that its status is that of a subcontractor if it is later determined that the party with whom the lien claimant contracted was the owner or an agent or owner. Provides requirements for service of notice. Removes language allowing for the waiving or subordination of a subcontractor's lien to that of another party, except in cases where there is a showing of actual notice to the subcontractor entered in the contract. Raises the civil penalty for failure to acknowledge satisfaction or release of a lien upon written demand of the listed parties to $2,500 (instead of $25). Makes other changes.
