Junior liens are wiped off title by a foreclosing senior lien..

: My question is, if I buy a foreclosure from a first trust deed holder (senior lien holder), are the debts to the junior lien holders wiped out, or do I have to pay them off also to have sole title to the property? I read an article by Rob Bruss that suggested that if a first mortgage lender is foreclosing, any junior liens, such as a second, third or fourth mortgage secured by the property will be wiped out. Please help!

Dominique,

The highest bidder at the lender’s foreclosure auction is going to take title to the property and any and all liens junior to the senior lien’s position will be wiped off the title of the property.

So, the new owner will own the property free and clear of all liens except for any real property taxes and/or bonded assessments that might exist.

Hope this helps.
