A. Except as provided in Subsection B of this section, a judgment for money against the association is not a lien on the common elements but is a lien in favor of the judgment lienholder against all of the units in the condominium at the time the transcript of judgment was recorded. No other property of a unit owner is subject to the claims of creditors of the association.
B. If the association has granted a security interest in the common elements to a creditor of the association pursuant to Section 47-7C-12 NMSA 1978, the holder of that security interest shall exercise its right against the common elements before its judgment lien on any unit may be enforced.
C. Whether perfected before or after the creation of the condominium, if a lien other than a deed of trust or mortgage, including a judgment lien or lien attributable to work performed or materials supplied before creation of the condominium, becomes effective against two or more units, the unit owner of an affected unit may pay to the lienholder the amount of the lien attributable to his unit, and the lienholder, upon receipt of payment, shall promptly deliver a release of the lien covering that unit. The amount of the payment shall be proportionate to the ratio which that unit owner's common expense liability bears to the common expense liabilities of all unit owners whose units are subject to the lien. After payment, the association shall not assess or have a lien against that unit owner's unit for any portion of the common expenses incurred in connection with that lien.
D. Subsequent to recording the declaration as provided in the Condominium Act and while the real estate remains subject to that act, no lien shall arise or be effective against the real estate. During the period, liens or encumbrances shall only arise or be created against each unit and the percentage of undivided interest in the common elements, appurtenant to the unit, in the same manner and under the same conditions as liens and encumbrances may arise or be created upon any other parcel of real property subject to individual ownership; provided, however, that no labor performed or materials furnished, with the consent or at the request of a unit owner or his agent or his contractor or subcontractor, shall be the basis for the filing of a lien pursuant to law against the unit or other property of another unit owner not expressly consenting to or requesting the same; except that express consent shall be deemed to be given by the owner of any unit in the case of emergency repairs. Labor performed or materials furnished for the common elements, if duly authorized by the association of unit owners, the manager or board of directors in accordance with the Condominium Act, the declaration or bylaws, shall be deemed to be performed or furnished with the express consent of each unit owner and shall be the basis for the filing of a lien pursuant to law against each of the units.
E. A judgment against the association must be indexed in the name of the condominium and the association and, when so indexed, is notice of the lien against the units.
