What are deficiency sales (Upset Bid Sales)?

Some Plaintiffs seek a deficiency judgment against the Defendant. This means the Plaintiff is not only foreclosing its mortgage but also seeks a personal money Judgment against the Defendant, for any shortfall between the debt and the sale amount. If a deficiency judgment has been demanded, the plaintiff will bid its’ maximum bid in the Principal Sale, the sale will be continued until the Upset Bid Sale, thirty days later. The plaintiff cannot participate as a bidder at the Upset Bid Sale, where the sale will be finalized by selling the property to the highest bidder. These sales are held at the Horry County Government & Justice Building, 1301 2nd Avenue, 3rd Floor, Conway, SC 29526.
