A managing broker in Washington is training new brokers about the state's non-judicial foreclosure process under RCW 61.24. Which of the following statements about Washington's trustee's sale process is NOT accurate?

Correct Answer

B) The borrower retains a statutory right of redemption for six months after the trustee's sale is completed.

The statement that the borrower retains a statutory right of redemption for six months after the trustee's sale is NOT accurate. Under RCW 61.24, Washington's non-judicial foreclosure process eliminates the post-sale right of redemption entirely. Once the trustee's sale is completed, the borrower has no right to reclaim the property. This is one of the most important and frequently tested distinctions between Washington's non-judicial process and judicial foreclosure states that provide redemption periods.

Answer Options
A
The trustee must record a Notice of Default before initiating the foreclosure sale process.
B
The borrower retains a statutory right of redemption for six months after the trustee's sale is completed.
C
The Notice of Trustee's Sale must be issued at least 90 days before the scheduled sale date.
D
The total minimum period from Notice of Default to trustee's sale is 190 days under state law.
