[WSBARP] Lien priority question

[John McCrady]

As a purchase money mortgage, it takes priority against previously entered judgments against the purchaser.
Sorry, I don’t have access to the authority for that statement right now

Hi,

I have a question regarding the relative priority of two liens encumbering a property.

If a judgment is entered in the superior court in the county in which the property is located, it is a lien against that property. What if the property is purchased after the judgment is entered and there is a purchase money deed of trust recorded at the same time the property is purchased. Does the judgment that was entered previously take priority over the deed of trust that secures a purchase money loan?

Thanks,

Patrick McDonald
