After a trustee's sale is completed on a Kirkland, Washington property under RCW Chapter 61.24, the former homeowner asks her broker whether she has the right to redeem the property by paying off the debt within a statutory period after the sale. What is the correct answer?

Correct Answer

D) No, there is no statutory right of redemption after a non-judicial trustee's sale in Washington

Under RCW Chapter 61.24, there is no statutory right of redemption after a completed non-judicial trustee's sale in Washington. Once the trustee's sale is finalized, the former owner has no legal right to reclaim the property by paying off the debt. This is a critical distinction from judicial foreclosure states, which often provide statutory redemption periods of 6 to 12 months.

Answer Options
A
Yes, she has 6 months after the sale to redeem if the property was her primary residence
B
No, but she may petition the superior court within 30 days to set aside the sale
C
Yes, she has 12 months after the sale to redeem the property by paying the full debt
D
No, there is no statutory right of redemption after a non-judicial trustee's sale in Washington
