Yes, in principle, it could be.
Are there arrears of maintenance ?
Do you have a judgment for them ?
Yes, it is possible, in principle, to have a charging order put on property as a means of enforcing arrears. You may wish to consider registering a pending land action.
You need to seek legal advice promptly. Also, be very careful to log the history of all missed payments.
