All statutory liens, consensual liens, mortgages, deeds of trust, assignments of rents, and other encumbrances, including all advances or charges made or accruing thereunder, whether voluntary or obligatory, and all modifications, extensions, renewals, and replacements thereof, recorded prior to the recording of a notice of claim of lien against proceeds have priority over a lien created under this chapter. A prior recorded lien includes, without limitation, a valid material supplier’s or mechanic’s lien claim that is recorded after the recording of the broker’s notice of claim of lien against proceeds but which relates back to a date prior to the recording date of the broker’s notice of claim of lien against proceeds.
