Any officer authorized by law to execute process, may seize, levy upon, or otherwise take possession of any property, whether real, personal, or mixed, even though there may be a lien against the property, and he or she may sell the property as provided by law.

The return receipt of the lienholder or lienholders, or the affidavit of the plaintiff or his or her attorney, of the compliance with this subsection, shall be filed in the office of the clerk of the court from which the writ of garnishment, attachment, or other process is issued.
(2) Any sale made under the provisions of this section shall be made subject to the lienholder's or lienholders' indebtedness.
(c) This section shall not be construed to deprive any person or persons of their homestead or personal exemptions as provided by law.
