    <p>I had a listing a couple years ago where getting a payoff out of
      the bank was extremely difficult because my client had foreclosed
      out the borrower.  Being the owner of the property was not good
      enough for the bank to give that information out, even though we
      were under contract.  I finally located someone at the bank high
      enough up to put pressure on the payoff department to act.  I
      don't think I would have succeeded if I had not represented the
      owner (e.g. represented a third party).</p>
    <p>I'm not sure the NTS will give you the information you need due
      to subsequent charges and fees.  But you could overpay to be on
      the safe side.  Overpaying may not matter in the long run, which
      leads to the next point.<br>
    </p>
    <p>I'd be worried about this being a recurring problem.  If the
      client cannot just pay off the mortgage such as perhaps buying at
      foreclosure, they could be just throwing money away if the payment
      issues cannot be resolved.  If there's not a long term plan I
      would advise against the initial cure.<br>
