Does a Certificate of Title issued at...
...Foreclosure guarantee a free and clear title? Hello,My husband and I are buying a house is in Duval County, FL which is sold as REO. The bank has a Certificate of Title and Certificate of Sale on it. However, the title search just showed that a mortgage obtained from a private individual ($30,000, obtained in 2005) has been recorded before the mortgage that was foreclosed on ($109,000, obtained in 2006).I wondered if anyone knows, whether the man (not a bank) who is the lender of the $30,000 can still come after us and try to foreclose or something, even though the bank has foreclosed, has a certificate of title issued by the county, and has final judgment etc. on it.The final judgment (ruled in favor of the bank (plaintiff)) in the foreclosure states:"The court orders:....3) The lien held by the plaintiff is superior in dignity to any right, title, interest, or claims of the Defendants and all persons, firms, or corporations claiming by, through or under the defendants or any of them and the property will be sold free and clear of all claims of the defendants. "The defendants list includes any "unknown parties claiming against" the people who actually obtained the $109,000 mortgage. Would the person who lended them the $30,000 be a defendent then, so that he cannot claim anything at this point.Thank you in advance about any insight you can provide...
