Does a Foreclosure wipe out all liens?

Question

Accepted Answer

In foreclosure, liens recorded post mortgage will be wiped out. Be aware that surplus funds will be distributed to each lien holder based on lien priority, which prioritizes which lien holder gets paid first based on the size of the lien. In other words, the liens will technically be gone because there will be nothing for creditors to have a lien on, however you will still be obligated to pay the debt. Any debt unpaid could result in legal action.
