                      officer as part of a title review. So, if a
                      landlord wishes to move forward, then the landlord
                      likely has to line up a title officer to do a
                      search and provide a declaration one way or the
                      other. AND don't forget that evictions take 4-6
                      months (at least they do in King County), SO
                      there's no guarantee that the loan, even if not
                      federally backed, is not sold during that time
                      period to Fannie or Freddie. So, in that
                      circumstance the landlord would have to start all
                      over at the beginning if that were to happen at
                      any point before the Sheriff executed the writ. <o:p></o:p></p>
