Instrument Number 3339150 and subsequently transferred and assigned to Secretary Of Housing

And Urban Development, and said assignment being recorded in Instrument Number 3410390, and

WHEREAS, the Mortgage was insured by the Secretary of Housing and Urban

WHEREAS, a default has been made in the covenants and conditions of the Mortgage which remains wholly unpaid as of the date of this notice, and no payment has been made sufficient to restore the subject loan to currency; and

WHEREAS, the entire amount delinquent as of June 6, 2016, is $59,634.91; and

WHEREAS, by virtue of this default, the Secretary has declared the entire amount of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage to be immediately due and payable;

NOW THEREFORE, pursuant to powers vested in the undersigned by the Single Family

Mortgage Foreclosure Act of 1994 (“the Act”), 12 U.S.C. 3741 et seq., by 24 CFR Part 27,

Subpart B, and by the Secretary’s designation of the undersigned as Foreclosure Commissioner, by instrument recorded on June 20, 2016 in Instrument Number 3435769, aforesaid records, notice is hereby given that on August 16, 2016, between the hours of 11:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M., local time, all real and personal property at or used in connection with the following described premises (“the Property”) will be sold at public auction to the highest bidder:

That real property situated in the County of Etowah, State of Alabama, described as follows, to-wit:

Lot 4, Block 3, in the survey of Broadview Subdivision, as shown by map recorded in Volume “C”, at Page 371, records of maps of surveys in the Office of the Judge of Probate of Etowah County, Alabama.

Said tract is situated in Etowah County, Alabama.

Commonly known as: 119 E CHERRY ST, GADSDEN, AL 35903

The sale will be held at the Etowah County Courthouse, in Gadsden, Alabama. The

Secretary will bid $59,634.91, plus the fees and costs associated with the sale.

There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his/her/their/its prorata share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale.

When making his/her/their/its bids, all bidders, except the Secretary must remit to the undersigned a deposit totaling $5,963.49 (10% of the Secretary’s bid) in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. Each oral bid need not be accompanied by a deposit. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $5,963.49 same as 10% must be presented before the bidding is closed. THE DEPOSIT IS NONREFUNDABLE. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within 30 days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the

Secretary is the high bidder, he/she need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveyancing fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery of the remainder of the payment, and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned.

The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extensions will be for 15-day increments for a designated fee, paid in advance.

The extension fee shall be in the form of a certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of HUD. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due.

If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder may be required to forfeit the cash deposit or, at the election of the Foreclosure Commissioner after consultation with the HUD field office representative, will be liable to HUD for any costs incurred as a result of such failure. The

Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD field office representative, offer the Property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder.

There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor(s) or others, subsequent to a completed foreclosure pursuant to the Act.

Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein. HUD does

not guarantee that the property will be vacant.

The amount that must be paid if the Mortgage is to be reinstated prior to the scheduled

sale is $59,634.91 as of August 16, 2016, plus all other amounts that would be due under the

Mortgage agreement if payments under the Mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs

and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for

posting notices and or the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and

customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-of-pocket costs

incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the

Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior

to reinstatement.
