In the USA, can you lose your home even after it is 100% paid off? (lemmy.ml)

Let’s say that you buy a home in cash and have 100% paid off. Could you still lose it somehow?

Back in the neighborhood I grew up in, we actually had a drug house that was taken by civil asset forfeiture. They had an RV/trailer (IDK which it was) in their driveway that people would go into for drug related shit and at one point a vehicle was set on fire in the middle of the night, probably to destroy the evidence it was stolen. I'm glad the drug selling scum were taken care of, especially since there were kids on the block.
