No. 24307 NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE Reference is hereby made to that certain trust indenture/deed of trust ("Deed of Trust") dated 12/24/07, recorded as Instrument No. 200700038932, mortgage records of FLATHEAD County, Montana in which Shirlee A. Gage was Grantor, Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., solely as a nominee for Montana Mortgage Company, a Montana Corporation, successors and assigns was Beneficiary and Insured Titles was Trustee. First American Title Insurance Company has succeeded Insured Titles as Successor Trustee. The Deed of Trust encumbers real property ("Property") located in FLATHEAD County, Montana, more particularly described as follows: Lot 4 of Block 42 of Kalispell, Montana, according to the map or plat thereof on file and of Record in the office of the Clerk and Recorder of Flathead County, Montana. By written instrument recorded as Instrument No. 201600015371, beneficial interest in the Deed of Trust was assigned to Wells Fargo Bank, NA. Beneficiary has declared the Grantor in default of the terms of the Deed of Trust and the promissory note ("Note") secured by the Deed of Trust because of Grantor's failure timely to pay all monthly installments of principal, interest and, if applicable, escrow reserves for taxes and/or insurance as required by the Note and Deed of Trust. According to the Beneficiary, the obligation evidenced by the Note ("Loan") is now due for the 06/01/16 installment payment and all monthly installment payments due thereafter. As of January 12, 2017, the amount necessary to fully satisfy the Loan was $237,645.94. This amount includes the outstanding principal balance of $224,792.30, plus accrued interest, accrued late charges, accrued escrow installments for insurance and/or taxes (if any) and advances for the protection of beneficiary's security interest (if any). Because of the defaults stated above, Beneficiary has elected to sell the Property to satisfy the Loan and has instructed Successor Trustee to commence sale proceedings. Successor Trustee will sell the Property at public auction on the front steps of the Flathead County Courthouse, 800 South Main, Kalispell, MT, City of Kalispell on May 26, 2017 at 11:00 AM, Mountain Time. The sale is a public sale and any person, including Beneficiary and excepting only Successor Trustee, may bid at the sale. The bid price must be paid immediately upon the close of bidding at the sale location in cash or cash equivalents (valid money orders, certified checks or cashier's checks). The conveyance will be made by trustee's deed without any representation or warranty, express or implied, as the sale is made strictly on an as-is, where-is basis. Grantor, successor in interest to Grantor or any other person having an interest in the Property may, at any time prior to the trustee's sale, pay to Beneficiary the entire amount then due on the Loan (including foreclosure costs and expenses actually incurred and trustee's and attorney's fees) other than such portion of the principal as would not then be due had no default occurred. Tender of these sums shall effect a cure of the defaults stated above (if all non-monetary defaults are also cured) and shall result in Trustee's termination of the foreclosure and cancellation of the foreclosure sale. The trustee's rules of auction may be accessed at www.northwesttrustee.com and are incorporated by the reference. You may also access sale status at www.Northwesttrustee.com or USA-Foreclosure.com.
