A 5 minute search shows that back in 2012, it appears that the property was QCD to the current owner from another individual and no other liens seem to be attached to the owner/property.

A lot of Chinese buyers have gone to Seattle but Trump makes them nervous (me as well) so I don't think they're as attached to US markets as they are Vancouver and if Seattle implements the same anti-foreign measures as Vancouver I think they would choose Vancouver over Seattle.The capital controls are mainly focused on corporate purchasers and the smaller time players but I'm assured that the really wealthy/connected can still move money out yet flows are lower.

The loan is attached to the property taxes and is paid back over 20 yrs.
