Title position (model): Foreclosing lien appears to be the senior mortgage (Susquehanna Bank, recorded First) (matched by judgment-to-loan amount only — plaintiff name doesn't match, likely an assignment). Junior liens are typically divested; taxes/municipal claims can still prime. Inputs: the open-mortgage records shown below.
