model — breakdown below
Title position (model): Foreclosing lien appears to be the senior mortgage (Mercantile Mortgage Co, 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.
Confidence basis: judgment amount aligns with the senior loan, but the plaintiff name doesn't match any lender.
Inputs: the open-mortgage records shown below.
