Your answer depends on the priority of the lien among the debts owed against the title.
Clean title cannot pass to a new owner until the lien is satisfied in some way.
In some states HOA liens are given a special status, much like property tax liens, regardless of their recording order/priority. See related link.

Can you buy an HOA lien from an HOA and force the homeowner to pay you for all back fees and interest?
Yes. A note on the interest part--your state's law will dictate what interest, if any, you will receive. And you will assume the HOA's liability--if the lien is later declared invalid, you will be responsible for the homeowner's court costs. Make sure that it is a part of the sale of the lien that the HOA will cooperate in any foreclosure proceedings that might occur to collect the lien--without them, the homeowner will likely win.
Can HOA foreclose on their liens before the bank lien?
Your answer depends on the nature of the HOA lien, the nature of the bank lien, the state law and the governing documents in effect for the HOA. There is no standard.

How long does it take to foreclose a hoa lien in Florida?
Your question assumes that a lien will automatically graduate to a foreclosure action, which is an invalid assumption. If the association has filed a lien on your title, and the lien is based on past-due assessments, the HOA may decide -- the past-due amounts are or become large enough -- to sell your home to satisfy your debt. The two actions may follow the same process if they involve past-due assessments, so in that sense the two actions are related. But one does not automatically trigger the other. Best practices dictate that you work with your board to pay your past-due assessments, so that you will not lose your home to foreclosure by the HOA.
Is there anytime an HOA cannot file a lien?
It would be improper for an HOA to file a lien if there is no legal reason to file such a document.
What happens to to second lien if borrower defaults on first lien?
It may be accelerated and payable from the excess proceeds of the auction held by the first lienor in foreclosure, if there is any excess. --- improve the answer: If seond lien is not a superior lien (e.g. Tax lien is superior than MGT lien), when the first lien is foreclosured the second lien will be washed out --- Not exists any more. However, a superior lien, even a second lien, will still survive the foreclosure process which means the property owner (who has bought the property during foreclosure) still needs to pay.
What actions by an HOA in Maryland qualify as proceedings to enforce a lien or collect a debt for unpaid HOA assessment?
Actions such as sending collection notices, filing a lawsuit, obtaining a judgment, or initiating foreclosure proceedings against a property would likely qualify as proceedings to enforce a lien or collect a debt for unpaid HOA assessments in Maryland. Any action taken by the HOA that aims to recover unpaid assessments through legal means can be considered part of the enforcement process.

Can a self managed HOA seize a car owned by a unitowner to pay off the 3500 dollars owed the HOA in delinquent dues as the unit is in foreclosure by the mortgage holder?
If the association wants to be accused of criminal theft, sure. To take the car the legal way, first, the association must file a lien against the delinquent unit. If the lien remains unpaid, then the association can file a lawsuit against the unitowner, unit, bank (as lienholder), and any subsequent purchaser of the unit for foreclosure of the lien. Fortunately for you, HOA dues are superior to any mortgage, lien, or deed of trust against the unit, so no matter what, the association will get paid. In the unlikely event the unit would not sell at auction for the association's foreclosure judgment amount, including attorney fees and court costs, the association could execute on the vehicle of the debtor/unitowner. I suggest consulting with a real estate attorney right away (see one who gives free consultations).
