What happens to other liens on the property?
Normally, liens other than the Treasurer's real property tax lien on foreclosed property are not extinguished at our foreclosure sale. The IRS has a 120-day redemption period. If prior lien holders attempt to collect on their liens after the property has been foreclosed, it is entirely up to the new owner to defend against these claims (RCW84.64.080).
