Birdman hasn't been having the best of luck the last couple of months, with recent claims from the Ivy Condo Association in Miami, stating that the co-founder of Cash Money Records owes over $12,000 in unpaid fees and bounced checks.

According to reports on TMZ, the condo association filed a lien back in November of this past year and right before Christmas reportedly asked a judge to foreclose on the property.

This marks the second lien for Birdman, with the first being issued earlier in the same month. The lien totaled $1 million and was filed by the Zankey Construction Company for unpaid invoices for construction and renovations on his $14.5 million home. The mansion, located in Miami Beach, was formerly owned by producer Scott Storch of The Roots fame, who lost the property to foreclosure in 2010. It was also reported that prior to the liens being issued, Birdman was granted a $5 million loan specifically for upgrading his home.

Birdman's condo at the Ivy was previously making headlines months prior when Keyshia Cole was arrested for assaulting a woman, who was later identified as Sabrina Mercadel, an employee of Cash Money Records.

In addition to Birdman's alleged personal financial hardship, Birdman is still facing tension with Lil Wayne, following a series of tweets and commentary blaming Birdman for the delay of his new album Tha Carter V, and wanting to leave the Cash Money label entirely. Lil Wayne is reportedly considering legal action against Cash Money to be able to leave the label on his own terms, and it has reported that the two are still not on speaking terms, while Cash Money took the stance that more work needs to be done prior to releasing Lil Wayne's album.

Birdman has not made any public remarks regarding his financial difficulty or the reported liens at this time.
