That would mean that the lien is still valid, even after the trustee sale, right? : : Randi : ================= : Technically yes, but what bothers me is that most traditional lenders won’t make a loan that’s junior to such a lien, and yet you say this lender did. : So if the scenario occurred as you state then I’d have to say YES the lien survives the later recorded institutional lien.
I've found places in CA Civil Code where the lender is not allowed to charge pre-payment penalties or more than $250 in legal fees, so I think that I have something to work with. I would much rather have the property than to have to go to court, though. Randi
