Judicial Forclosure: How Verify JR Lienholders Served

[Hanna Brown]

Question for all you foreclosure buyers out there: How do you conduct your due diligence to make sure all the junior lien holders have been properly notified/served in the case of a judicial foreclosure proceeding?

Apart from reading/verifying the defendants named on the the general judgement filed with the courts and recorded with the county, is there more investigating I should be doing to verify the defendants listed on the judgement were properly served? Is there any way to check what they were served?

Regarding due diligence with the owner, should I be checking newspapers to ensure that the owner has been properly notified?
