The Notice<\/a> of Trustee’s Sale is the second document to be served during a non-judicial<\/a> real property foreclosure<\/a>. The requirement for this notice<\/a> comes from RCW 61.24.040(1)(e) which states:<\/span><\/p>\n

RCW 61.24.040
\n(e) Cause<\/a> a copy of the notice<\/a> of sale described in RCW 61.24.040(1)(f) to be posted in a conspicuous place on the property, or in lieu of posting, cause<\/a> a copy of said notice<\/a> to be served upon any occupant of the property<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The statute requires posting of the notice<\/a> in a conspicuous location on the property. It also provides the option of serving the notice<\/a> on any occupant of the property. Though rare it is not unknown for clients to request both posting and service on any occupant.<\/span><\/p>\n

This notice<\/a> must be posted at least 90 days prior to the date of sale. Unfortunately many such assignments are issued on the last day, or next to last day, for service.<\/span><\/p>\n

Note there is no provision for serving the grantor<\/a> in the more conventional sense, such as personal in hand service or abode service. This creates a particularly difficult situation if the property is unoccupied and difficult to locate.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, if the property is landlocked (no road access<\/a>) in deep forest it may<\/a> be impossible to locate for posting without the tools and skills of a professional surveyor.<\/span><\/p>\n

A professional process server will communicate any difficulties to the client at the earliest possible time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other sections of the statute impose a number of mailing requirements. However, since process servers are rarely, if ever, requested to do those mailings they will not be described here.<\/span><\/p>\n

NOTE: Service must be done at least 90 days before the auction date.<\/span><\/p>\n
