Yes, if there is enough in proceeds to pay off all of the liens on the home, any remaining funds are paid to the borrower.
Liens are paid off in the following order:
Any funds after these are paid will go to the borrowers. Unfortunately, this is usually not the case, as most sheriff sales do not generate enough money to pay off even the real estate taxes and first mortgage in full.
Foreclosure is governed by state law, different states can observe different foreclosure procedures. In foreclosure, the lender, mortgagee, automatically becomes full owner of the property when a borrower, mortgagor, defaults. The borrower can still pay the full amount and get the house back during the redemption period. If the money is not paid back, you will lose the ownership of the house. Then the house will be sold at a public sale or auction to pay for the full loan amount, if the sale is less than the amount owed, you will owe the difference.
The borrower can sell the house up until the auction is completed. If it does not sell for the amount owed, the borrower may be able to get the mortgage holder to accept a short sale. Watch out for scams in this area.
A foreclosure in Florida begins when a lender files court action and records a notice of a pending lawsuit (Lis Pendens)against the borrower. The lender notifies the borrower and any other affected parties in person or in some cases by mail or publication. If the borrower does not respond to the court action within a specified amount of time, the county clerk can find the borrower in default and the lender can ask the court to make a final ruling. If the court rules against the borrower, the ruling will include the total amount owed to the lender and the foreclosure sale date. The lender is not required by state law to notify the borrower before initiating the foreclosure process, but individual mortgages or deeds of trust might call for this. The borrower can stop the foreclosure up until the date of the sale by paying the total amount owed to the lender. There are actually companies that will work with you for free to buy your mortgage away from your mortgage company and avoid your foreclosure. I would advise looking into this first.
Remaining principal (and interest on remaining principal unpaid) is the responsibility of the borrower, of course. The lender whose foreclosure sale did not net the full outstanding amount can place a lien on any other property of the borrower and sue to liquidate those possessions or receivables to satisfy the debt.

The clerk of court issues a notice of sale containing the location, date, and time of the sale. The notice is published once a week for two weeks, with the second notice appearing at least five days before the sale.The clerk usually oversees the sale, which ordinarily occurs at the county courthouse at 11:00 a.m. on the sale date. The winning bidder must provide a 5-percent deposit and pay the remaining balance by the end of the day or a new sale is scheduled a minimum of 20 days later. After a successful sale, the clerk gives a certificate of sale to the winning bidderWithin 10 days of the sale, the clerk transfers ownership to the winning bidder if no one disputes the sale. In most instances, a borrower has no right of redemption after the certificate of sale is issued.

Any sale of real estate that generates proceeds that are less than the amount owed on the property. A real estate short sale occurs when the lender and borrower decide that selling the property and absorbing a moderate loss is preferable to having the borrower default on the loan. It is therefore an alternative to foreclosure. It is often used as an alternative to foreclosure because it mitigates additional fees and costs to both the creditor and borrower.
When an order recalling sheriff sale is issued in a foreclosure, it means that the sale of the property by the sheriff has been halted or canceled. This could occur for various reasons, such as a legal error, settlement negotiations, or a successful challenge to the foreclosure. The order recalls the sale and typically returns ownership of the property back to the borrower.

At least 30 days before starting the foreclosure process, the lender mails a letter to the borrower warning of the impending foreclosure. During this pre-foreclosure period, the borrower can prevent the foreclosure by paying off the amount in default. The lender initiates the foreclosure through the courts and records a lis pendens (notice of pending lawsuit) with the county clerk. The lender can sue for either the default payments or the entire unpaid principal balance on the loan. The borrower is notified of the foreclosure action in person or by publication if necessary. After being notified, the borrower has at least 35 days to respond or the court will make a ruling. If the court rules against the borrower, a sale date will be scheduled.

It will depend on the costs involved. If the sale of the home brings more money than the mortgage, the remainder will go first to cover the costs of the foreclosure. If there is anything left, it will be paid to the holders.
The mortgage company gets the money.
Yes, as long as the sale is complete and the mortgage (including unpaid interest and penalties) is paid off before the date of the Trustees Sale.
Then you still owe money to the bank.
