Plain-English Summary
Section 733 states the general rule behind every execution sale: a debtor's land, tenements, goods, and chattels are liable for debts, and can be seized on execution and sold, unless the law exempts them.
The section doesn't list the exemptions itself; those live elsewhere in Oklahoma law. What it does is set the baseline: absent an exemption, everything the debtor owns, real or personal, is fair game for a judgment creditor pursuing collection through execution.
