after the adoption of this chapter and after filing of this chapter
with the New Jersey State Commissioner of Insurance, until such time
as all taxes and assessments and all other municipal liens or charges
due and payable appearing on the official certificate of search shall
have been paid, either by the owner of such real property or by the
insurance company pursuant to the provisions of N.J.R.S. 17:36-10
