At the time of recordation of the deed of trust securing the home equity account, fee simple title to the home shall be vested in the applicant free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, assessments or other defects which might affect the priority of the authority's lien or are otherwise unacceptable to the authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the home may be subject to liens securing outstanding balances in an aggregate amount not greater than one third of the maximum amount available under the account; provided, however, that the initial equity payment from the home equity account shall be used at the closing thereof to pay off such outstanding balances in full. If the spouse of an individual applicant has an inchoate dower or curtesy interest in the home, such spouse shall execute the deed of trust securing the home equity account for the purpose of conveying such dower or curtesy interest as security for the home equity account loan.
