     667-102]  Recordation of affidavit, conveyance document; effect.  (a)  The affidavit required under section 667-101 and the conveyance document shall be recorded no earlier than ten days after the public sale is held but not later than forty-five days after the public sale is held.  The affidavit and the conveyance document may be recorded separately and on different days.  After the recordation, the association shall mail or deliver a recorded copy to those persons entitled to receive the public notice of the public sale under section 667-96(c).

     (b)  When both the affidavit and the conveyance document are recorded:

     (1)  The sale of the unit is considered completed;

     (2)  All persons claiming by, through, or under the unit owner and all other persons having liens on the unit junior to the lien of the association shall be forever barred of and from any and all right, title, interest, and claims at law or in equity in and to the unit and every part of the unit, except as otherwise provided by law;

     (3)  The lien of the association and all liens junior in priority to the lien of an association shall be automatically extinguished from the unit; and

     (4)  The purchaser shall be entitled to immediate and exclusive possession of the unit.

     (c)  The unit owner and any person claiming by, through, or under the unit owner and who is remaining in possession of the unit after the recordation of the affidavit and the conveyance document shall be considered a tenant at sufferance subject to eviction or ejectment.  The purchaser may bring an action in the nature of summary possession under chapter 666, ejectment, or trespass or may bring any other appropriate action in a court where the unit is located to obtain a writ of possession, a writ of assistance, or any other relief.  In any such action, the court shall award the prevailing party its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs and all other reasonable fees and costs, all of which are to be paid for by the non-prevailing party. [L 2012, c 182, pt of §3(2)]

 

Case Notes

 

  Subsection (b)(2) did not bar respondent's challenge to association of apartment owners' nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings because respondent's affidavit alleged that she was currently under a payment plan with the association of apartment owners as of the foreclosure date.  The respondent's claims therefore fell under the subsection (b)(2) "otherwise provided by law" exception.  139 H. 278, 389 P.3d 115 (2016).
