Again, this is not a “free house” as many tout although not true.

This means the bank cannot foreclose on you again. This does NOT mean that the lien is not still on the property. Liens in Florida attach for 20 years.

In theory, one would have to file a quiet title lawsuit to remove this mortgage lien that still remains and argue that it is a restraint on alienation. If the condo association here merely is going to rent it out, then the lien doesn’t matter. The lien only matters upon attempting to sell the property as it is a cloud on title.

This issue has not been addressed yet as this is only one of the first few cases with this type of ruling that exist.
