The proceeds (exclusive of costs) of such sale shall be held as a fund subject to the liens and claims of the United States, in the same manner and with the same priority as such liens and claims had with respect to the property sold, for not less than 30 days after the date of such sale, " (d) REDEMPTION BY LTNITED STATES.—

"(2) AMOUNT TO BE PAID.—In any case in which the United States redeems real property pursuant to paragraph (1), the amount to be paid for such property shall be the amount prescribed by subsection (d) of section 2410 of title 28 of the United States Code.

If no such officer is designated by local law or if such officer fails to issue such documents, the Secretary or his delegate shall execute a certificate of redemption therefor. " (B) FILING.—The Secretary or his delegate shall, without delay, cause such documents or certificate to be dulyrecorded in the proper registry of deeds. If the State in which the real property redeemed by the United States is situated has not by law designated an office in which such certificate may be recorded, the Secretary or his delegate shall file such certificate in the office of the clerk of the United States district court for the judicial district in which such property is situated. " (C) EFFECT.—A certificate of redemption executed by the Secretary or his delegate shall constitute prima facie evidence of the regularity of such redemption and shall, when recorded, transfer to the United States all the rights, title, and interest in and to such property acquired by the person from whom the United States redeems such property by virtue of the sale of such property."
