Generally: The proceeds of the sale are used to pay outstanding liens that must be paid. Liens that must be paid are local, state and federal taxes, municipal services liens, the subject mortgage and any liens that were recorded prior to the recording of the foreclosed mortgage. Any liens that were recorded after the subject mortgage are wiped out as to the record title. They would no longer be liens against the real estate but could be pursued as against the owner who acquired them.

What does it mean when you say that there is a lean on your property?

A lien is placed on property when the owner owes money to someone, and the someone wants to ensure that it will be paid back. Liens are only available to secure some kinds of debts. If a person takes out a mortgage, the bank will place a mortgage lien on the property. This means that when the person sells the property, the mortgage must get paid before the person can receive any proceeds from the sale. If the person pays off their mortgage while they still own the property, the lien will be removed. In other cases, liens are placed due to judgments and certain kinds of bad debts.

What is a Nondisturbance Clause in a commercial lease?

The nondisturbance clause, when properly worded, ensures that the rental agreement between the tenant and the landlord will continue under any circumstances, including mortgage default or the sale of the property. This is done primarily to protect the renter from eviction by the mortgagor if the property is foreclosed upon. A nondisturbance clause ensures that a tenant will not be evicted in the event that the landlord goes bankrupt or sells to a new owner.

What can a homeowners association do if your home is for sale and you do not pay?

If a homeowner is part of a homeowners association (HOA) and they are not paying their dues or assessments, the HOA typically has the right to place a lien on the property. This means that if the homeowner sells the property, the HOA will be entitled to collect the unpaid dues from the proceeds of the sale. Additionally, the HOA may take legal action, such as filing a lawsuit, to recover the unpaid dues.
