(i) You have a right to contest the forfeiture or to seek an extension of time to cure the default, if the default does not involve a failure to pay money, or both, by commencing a court action by filing and serving the summons and complaint on the Seller or Seller’s agent or attorney before the Declaration of Forfeiture is recorded.

NO EXTENSION OF THE TIME FOR CURE CAN BE GRANTED FOR DEFAULTS THAT ARE A FAILURE TO PAY MONEY. However, you may not be in default if you have a claim against the Seller that would release, discharge, or excuse the default. (j) You have a right to request a court to determine whether a public sale of the property should be ordered. A public sale may be ordered if the court finds that the fair market value of the property substantially exceeds the sum of the debt owed under the Contract and any other liens on the property that have priority over the Seller’s interest in the property. The excess, if any, of the highest bid at the sale over the amount owed on your Contract will be applied to the liens eliminated by the sale and the balance, if any, paid to you, the Purchaser. If you wish to request the sale, the court will require you to deposit the anticipated sale costs with the Clerk of the Court. Any action to obtain an order for public sale must be commenced by filing and serving the summons and complaint on the Seller or Seller’s Agent before the Declaration of Forfeiture is recorded.

(k) The Seller is not required to give any person any other notice of default before recording the Declaration of Forfeiture, which completes the forfeiture. The Contract requires that notice(s) be given to 31124 Lebor Devore Road East, Eatonville, WA 98328. (l) Additional Information: NONE.
