OPINION

DAVID A. SCHOLL, Bankruptcy Judge.

A. INTRODUCTION

The instant contested matters are motions (“the Motions”) to avoid, in their entirety, certain judicial liens on realty (“the Property”) which the Debtor co-owns with his two sisters. Certain lienholders oppose the Motions, at least in part, on the ground that the value of the entire Property less the unavoidable mortgage on it exceeds the Debtor’s statutory exemptions in the Property.
