(b) The domiciliary receiver of an insurer domiciled in a reciprocal state, shall be vested by operation of law with the title to all of the property, contracts, and rights of action, and all of the books and records of the insurer located in this state, and he or she shall have the immediate right to recover balances due from local agents and to obtain possession of any books and records of the insurer found in this state.
