<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">IF the HOA lien was superior to the BoA lien, BoA has been wiped out. They can ‘save’ their position by ‘redeeming’ the property. It’s not ‘subject to the BoA lien’ unless the BoA lien was actually superior
to the HOA lien. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">That said, candidly the BoA lien probably is superior under the governing documents unless this is a
<i>really </i>old Condo - since most Condo Declarations make dues subordinate to the first mortgages). Get a copy of the Declaration from title – it’s easy to find in there. Also it is REALLY important to get a copy of the judgment from the Court – it might
well have MADE the Condo the priority lien if BoA was served with the foreclosure suit but never even responded – that happens more often than you can believe.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">BoA will have the right to redeem by paying to your client what they paid plus some interest etc. It’s in the statute but I am on mobile at the moment. It’s possible that they won’t of course but I would advise
your client not to get too excited just yet.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">I have client that just bought a condo at a Sherriff’s sale for $15,000 which were the dues owed by the owner. The underlying debt is with Bank of America for $120,000 but the property has a value of $70,000.
B of A did not show up at the sale. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">What happens? Client gets the property subject to the Bank of America deed of trust, right?
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">So, the deadbeat prior owner won’t pay, that’s for sure. My client doesn’t want to pay $120,000 to B of A. So I expect there will be a foreclosure by bank of America on the new owner.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">What is the function of the “Redemption Rights” in the Bank? Does the Bank have to buy the place back from my client for what she paid at the sale?
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">A quick overview of how this works would be appreciated. Just the framework.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
