(A) The sale of a timeshare estate by public auction must be held in the county in which the timeshare estate is located, on the date and at the time and place designated in the notice of sale.

(B) Any person, including the lienholder, may bid at the sale. The trustee may bid for the lienholder but not for himself or herself. If the trustee designates another person to bid for the lienholder, the trustee may conduct the sale and act as the auctioneer.

(C) The person conducting the sale may postpone the sale from time to time. In such case, notice of postponement must be given by oral public proclamation thereof by the person conducting the sale at the time and place last appointed for the sale. The notice of sale regarding the postponed sale must be mailed and recorded pursuant to Section 27-32-330. The effective date of the initial notice of sale for purposes of Section 27-32-330 is not affected by a postponed sale.

(D) The buyer must pay in cash or certified funds at the day of sale the price bid to the person acting as the auctioneer. The lienholder must receive a credit on its bid for the amount set forth in the notice of sale as required by Section 27-32-330.

(E) Upon the issuance of the trustee's deed, the buyer at the sale is entitled to possession and use of the timeshare estate in accordance with the timeshare instrument. Foreclosure by an assessment lienholder does not affect the interest of the mortgage lienholder except as provided in Section 27-32-320(C). Any other person thereafter claiming possession of the timeshare estate is considered to be a tenant at sufferance, and the buyer is entitled, upon application to a court of competent jurisdiction, to a writ of possession.

(F) On the date of the sale and upon receipt of the amount bid, the trustee must issue to the buyer a certificate of sale stating that a foreclosure conforming to the requirements of this article has occurred, including the time, place, and date of the sale; that the property was sold; the amount of the mortgage lien or the assessment lien, as applicable; the amount of the purchase price; and the name and address of the successful bidder. A copy of the certificate of sale must be mailed by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to all persons entitled to receive a notice of sale under Section 27-32-330.
