Need urgent advice on foreclosure auction
I am really hoping someone can give me a quick response to this troubling question. The auction ends in 4 hours.
A 2 bedroom condo in a very exclusive building has a final judgement order of $178,000
Property market value is around $463,000.
Court records show the plaintiff is the first mortgage.
HOWEVER the online auction portal also lists the following defendants-
DEFENDANT
Suntrust Bank (na),
DEFENDANT
John Doe
DEFENDANT
One Miami Master Assn Inc,
DEFENDANT
One Miami West Condo Assn Inc,
Now Suntrust Bank at no point has a mortgage on the property in the county records.
Similarly the condo associations listed don't have any liens or any mention at all in court records. I don't understand how they are listed as defendants? This would be a steal of a deal at $178,000 but I'm scared about the defendants listed. Help anyone?

Have you run an official title search on the property. That deal sounds too good to be true. I would double check that it is the first mortgage foreclosing. Spend the $100 to make sure you don't make a mistake on this one. Just a suggestion.
