upon business records there are no known written assignments of
the trust deed by the trustee or by the beneficiary, except as re-
corded in the records of the county or counties in which the above
described real property is situated. Further, no action has been
instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining
secured by the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted,
such action has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS
86.752(7). Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell
the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said
trust deed and notice has been recorded pursuant to Section
86.752(3) of Oregon Revised Statutes. There is a default by grantor
or other person owing an obligation, performance of which is se-
cured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with re-
spect to provisions therein which authorize sale in the event of

or’s failure to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED

$124,508.36 Because of interest, late charges, and other charges
that may vary from day-to-day, the amount due on the day you pay
may be greater. It will be necessary for you to contact the Trustee
before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so
that you may be advised of the exact amount you will be required to
pay. By reason of the default, the beneficiary has declared all sums
owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due
and payable, those sums being the following, to- wit: The install-
ments of principal and interest which became due on
10/1/2019, and all subsequent installments of principal and
interest through the date of this Notice, plus amounts that are
due for late charges, delinquent property taxes, insurance
premiums, advances made on senior liens, taxes and/or in-
surance, trustee’s fees, and any attorney fees and court costs
arising from or associated with the beneficiaries efforts to
protect and preserve its security, all of which must be paid as
a condition of reinstatement, including all sums that shall ac-
crue through reinstatement or pay-off. Nothing in this notice
shall be construed as a waiver of any fees owing to the Beneficiary
under the Deed of Trust pursuant to the terms of the loan docu-
ments. Whereof, notice hereby is given that QUALITY LOAN SER-
VICE CORPORATION OF WASHINGTON, the undersigned trust-
ee will on 11/29/2021 at the hour of 10:00 AM, Standard of Time,
