62-15-23. Recordation of mortgages.

Any mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument executed by a cooperative or foreign corporation transacting business in this state, pursuant to this act [62-15-1 to 62-15-32 NMSA 1978], which, by its terms, creates a lien upon real and personal property then owned or after-acquired, and which is recorded as a mortgage of real property in any county in which such property is located or is to be located, shall have the same force and effect as if the mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument were also recorded or filed in the proper office in such county as a mortgage of personal property. Recordation of any such mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument shall cause the lien thereof to attach to all after-acquired property of the mortgagor of the nature herein described as being mortgaged or pledged thereby immediately upon the acquisition thereof by the mortgagor, and such lien shall be superior to all claims of creditors of the mortgagor and purchasers of such property and to all other liens, except liens of prior record, affecting such property.
