1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, a judgment for money against the association, if a copy of the docket or an abstract or copy of the judgment is recorded, is not a lien on the common elements, but is a lien in favor of the judgment lienholder against all of the other real property of the association and all of the units in the condominium hotel at the time the judgment was entered. No other property of a unit’s owner or the declarant is subject to the claims of creditors of the association.

2. If the association has granted a security interest in the common elements to a creditor of the association pursuant to NRS 116B.560, the holder of that security interest shall exercise its right against the common elements before its judgment lien on any unit may be enforced.

3. Whether perfected before or after the creation of the condominium hotel, 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 hotel, becomes effective against two or more units, the owner of an affected unit may pay to the lienholder the amount of the lien attributable to his or her unit, and the lienholder, upon receipt of payment, promptly shall deliver a release of the lien covering that unit. The amount of the payment must be proportionate to the ratio which that owner’s liability for common expenses bears to the liabilities for common expenses of all owners whose units are subject to the lien. After payment, the association may not assess or have a lien against that owner’s unit for any portion of the common expenses incurred in connection with that lien.

4. A judgment against the association must be indexed in the name of the condominium hotel and the association and, when so indexed, is notice of the lien against the units.
