A party in a foreclosure action or the successor of a party may redeem from the foreclosure sale within sixty days after the sale, except for abandoned property as provided in section 32-19-19 and agricultural land. Agricultural land may be redeemed within three hundred sixty-five days after the filing of the summons and complaint in the office of the clerk of district court or the time of the first publication of the notice by advertisement. The final date for redemption of agricultural land may not be earlier than sixty days after the sheriff’s sale. The owner of the property has a paramount right to redeem upon paying the amount bid at the sheriff’s sale plus interest on that amount at the same rate as the obligation secured by the mortgage. Persons holding subordinate liens on the property may redeem in the order of priority as determined by the order of attachment to the property. This redemption has the effect of a redemption as of the date of deposit, subject to the subsequent payment of any additional amount, if any, determined to be due as of that date.
