=== If an enforcement order is made ===
If the order to sell the property is made, the creditor can proceed with the sale by forwarding a copy of the sale order to the local [[Bailiffs, Court Bailiffs and Sheriffs|court bailiff]]. The court bailiff usually arranges for a real estate agent to sell the property.
Under the [http://canlii.ca/t/858w Court Order Enforcement Exemption Regulation], a judgment debtor whose principal residence is located within the Metro Vancouver or Victoria areas may claim $12,000 equity that is exempt from seizure. Judgment debtors living outside these areas may claim an exemption of $9,000 equity in their principal residences.
