All mortgage foreclosure sales of real property by advertisement, under power of sale contained in such mortgages, made before January 1, 1992, by any receiver or personal representative, appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction, acting for and on behalf of the trust or estate for which such receiver or personal representative was appointed, or any like foreclosure made by the assignee of any such receiver or personal representative, and where such receiver or personal representative acquired title to such mortgage or mortgages by virtue of such appointment, and not by assignment, are hereby legalized, cured, and validated as fully as if such mortgage or mortgages had been assigned by the owner thereof to such receiver or personal representative, and such assignment duly acknowledged and recorded, as required by § 43-11-29, relating to power of sale in mortgages, in whom such power vests by assignment and record thereof.

If any person has any vested right in any real property by reason of any omission referred to in this section, and if no action or proceeding to enforce such right was commenced prior to July 1, 1993, such right shall be forever barred. No action or proceeding brought involving real property shall be of any force or effect, or maintainable in any court of this state, unless prior to July 1, 1993, there was recorded in the office of the register of deeds of the county in which the real property affected is situated, a notice of the pendency of such action, in accordance with chapter 15-10.
