of the notice of default and foreclosure sale in accordance with
sections 3758 and 3760 of this title;
(4) the date and place of filing the notice of default and

instruments submitted for recordation in relation to the
foreclosure of the security property under this chapter shall be
accepted for recordation by the registrar of deeds or other
appropriate official of the county or counties in which the
security property is located upon tendering of payment of the usual
recording fees for such instruments, and without regard to the
compliance of those instruments with any other local filing
requirements.
