Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
If I hold a promissory note as a second mortgage to someone who has gone into foreclosure on the first note/mortgage is that person still obligated to pay the promissory note to me? I don't know if they went bankrupt or not, but the bank did take back the property.

Yes. The foreclosure may have knocked out your lien but not the obligation to pay on the note.
