Common use of Subordination of Lien Clause in Contracts

Subordination of Lien. The lien provided for in this Declaration shall be subordinate to the lien of any first mortgage now or hereafter placed upon the building site subject to assessment, provided, however, that such subordination shall apply only to the assessments which have become due and payable prior to a sale or transfer of such building site pursuant to a decree of foreclosure, or any other proceeding in lieu of foreclosure. Such sale or transfer shall not relieve such property from liability for any assessments thereafter becoming due, nor from the lien of any such subsequent assessment.
