Plus forgive the deficiency judgement.

You want to have as much covered as possible and be able to talk to partner without letting emotions or anger cloud judgement.  

But typically, she has the legal authority to use her best judgement to determine what is best for the estate.

Long story short, my partner has two judgements against him.

The eviction always goes a lot smoother than the collection efforts, obviously, but I was wondering if these judgements have any monetary value.

Yes, it's true that 80-90% of their deals ended up being profitable but those liens and judgements could become problematic for future transactions and you're definitely not doing yourself any favors in making enemies with the municipality for not taking care of your properties.The best advice I can give you is this, especially as an individual doing this where every deal counts.  

I took him to court and won a judgement with ease.

They know I will want it to serve papers to get a judgement.

I looked at a property in SF a couple of weeks ago, had 1K in liens against it, there was a judgement that was for 15k, but missed the filing of the foreclosure by one day so it didn't attach to the property.  

The bigger risk is to the seller .. now WA is a purchase money owner occ state.. that means a loan used as purchase money to buy a owner occ home . there can BE NO deficiency judgement by statue..
