edemption Policy

Property owners do not have the right to redeem after the foreclosure sale.
 Instead, they have the right to cure prior to the sale.

Junior Lienors may file an Intent to Redeem only on liens that were recorded prior to the filing of the Notice of Election & Demand, and that meet the statutory redemption requirements to the satisfaction of the Public Trustee:

(1) a deed of trust or other lien created or recognized by state or federal statute or by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

(2) a lien that is subordinate to the deed of trust or lien being foreclosed; and

(3) appears by instrument(s) duly recorded in the county named in the lien or deed of trust.

All Intents to Redeem must be filed with the Public Trustee by the 8th business day following the foreclosure sale.
