Re: 3rd trustee
Whoever buys at the sale by the trustee for the holder of the 3rd deed of trust acquires the property "subject to" the 1st and 2nd deeds of trust. Frequently, such buyers have pretty deep pockets and/or good access to credit and will refinance the property promptly. However, senior liens are not paid from the proceeds of a junior trustee sale.

The third has to pay off or assume the 1st and 2nd.
