[WSBAPT] WA Judicial Foreclosure question and possible referral (Pierce County)

[Lewis, Amy C.]

Candace,

            My office might be able to assist if we don't have a conflict with any of the parties.  My partner Darren Krattli is experienced with judicial foreclosures.  Is this commercial or residential?

Subject: [WSBAPT] WA Judicial Foreclosure question and possible referral (Pierce County)
Importance: High

Hi Listmates,

I have just obtained an order granting a motion for summary judgment allowing me to hold a judicial foreclosure sale on behalf of my client (the lender).  We are in a serious time crunch, because the county (Pierce) is about to sell the property at a tax sale because of the borrower's failure to pay the property taxes.  The tax sale is tentatively scheduled on 11/17/2020.  If Pierce County sells it first, our security interest most likely would be wiped out.

I don't know how to expedite our own foreclosure process to possibly sell first, and could really use some advice from someone who's familiar with it.  My client is a private individual who's never foreclosed before, and our firm doesn't do foreclosures.  It might be easier to refer out the sale itself.

I think I now need to request a decree of foreclosure/order of sale to present to the sheriff's office so they can proceed with what they need to do.  But we are having trouble figuring out exactly what to present to the court.

Anyone willing to answer some questions or possibly take on the sale itself?

Thanks in advance.

Candace Wilkerson
