Build a short case summary
Write down the court and case number exactly as recorded. Include the property and sale date, then note where each figure came from. Distinguish an auction result from an order or statement describing distribution. If you have only one document, record what it proves and leave the rest open.
Ask useful questions
- Does the case number match the property in the notice?
- What does the record show about confirmation and distribution?
- Which office currently handles any remaining balance?
- What records or steps does that office require?
- Has a notice or payment already been issued?
Do not turn a partial file into a promise
A sale amount minus an old loan balance can produce an attractive number without producing a reliable estimate. Use the relevant payoff and deductions. If the information is missing, say so rather than showing a precise but unsupported figure.
Caliber's QR breakdowns display the supplied figures and their preparation date. They are not court records, signed awards or a substitute for confirmation with the office handling the case. Legal advice belongs to a licensed attorney.
