i have a lady wanting to sell her house that I is worth about $46k.
she said her principal is 56,816
and her payoff is 37,468
payments $555/mo
10.95% intrest
im confused on the principal -vs- payoff part
if I were to start paying on the loan, would it be the 56,816 @ 10.95% ?

I'm assuming the seller means she borrowed $57K and that she owes $37K. Borrowers use mortgage words incorrectly every day where I am.
A 30-year 57K loan at 11% matches the payment she says she is making.
So yes, if you take over that loan, you'd be paying the high interest and the final payoff is $37K.
Figure out the real numbers by getting an authorization to release from the borrower and talking to the bank. Figure out the equity by pinning down the value.
