This is an appeal from a district court order granting summary judgment in an action to quiet title. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Jennifer P. Togliatti, Judge. Reviewing the summary judgment de novo, Wood v. Safeway, Inc., 121 Nev. 724, 729, 121 P.3d 1026, 1029 (2005), we affirm.
The record on appeal demonstrates that respondent Bank of America tendered the entire unpaid lien amount reflected in the HOAs notice of default. Consequently, the HOA's foreclosure sale was void, as there was no portion of the lien that was in default at the time of the sale.1 See Grant S. Nelson, Dale A. Whitman, Ann M. Burkhart & R. Wilson Freyermuth, Real Estate Finance Law § 7:21 (6th ed. 2014) ("The most common defect that renders a sale void is that the [lienholder] had no right to foreclose."); see also Henke v. First S. Props., Inc., 586 S.W.2d 617, 620 (Tex. App. 1979) (payment of past-due installments cured loan's default such that subsequent foreclosure on the property was void); Baxter Dunaway, The Law of Distressed Real Estate § 17:20 (2017) ("A foreclosure sale can be set aside by a court of equity by showing a lack of default."). Although appellant Saticoy Bay claims it is protected as a bona fide purchaser, we conclude that Saticoy Bay's putative status as a bona fide purchaser cannot validate an otherwise void sale. See Nelson, supra, § 7:21 ("Some defects are so substantial that they render the sale void. In this situation, neither legal nor equitable title transfers to the sale purchaser.... The most common defect that renders a sale void is that the [lienholder] had no right to foreclose, such as when ... the [debt] is not in default."). We therefore
ORDER the judgment of the district court AFFIRMED.
