If there is a lien placed on a home, can that home be sold or does the lien have to be paid in full before a sale can go through?

I still owe over $20,000 on an RV and worry what will happen if I don’t pay it off. Can they put a lien on my home and if so will I be able to sell the home in order to pay off the RV and buy a smaller home. I saw a show on TV where the guy had to come up with the money he owed on a lien before the house could be sold so he couldn’t list the house.
