Normally the "last" step before the lender proceeds with collection efforts against the borrower directly, is for the court to confirm the sale, at which point the deficiency is liquidated. Making sure the numbers are right and what your additional exposure may be is something that you should care about, because if you think there's a mistake you can motion to set aside the sale. It could be your last chance to fix things, so it is wise not only to attend but also have an attorney be there with you, or for you....
