Is the lien and auction timeline the same nationwide?

No, the lien and auction timeline is NOT the same nationwide. Each state has their own requirements for the lien and auction process. Typically, there are requirements of notification, a time period where the tenant has the ability to come current on balances owed, followed by public notice of auction, and then the sale of stored goods. Typically, the lien and auction timeline allows for the recovery of balances owed and new rental to a paying tenant within 60 days.
