§ 151. When comptroller shall bid in premises. If on a sale on any such foreclosure, there is not bid and paid or received the amount unpaid on the mortgage, for principal and interest and the costs and expenses of the foreclosure, the comptroller may cause the sale to be postponed and have the value of the premises appraised by two competent and disinterested persons selected by him. If the premises are appraised at a sum equal to or exceeding the amount unpaid to the state, including the costs of the foreclosure and expenses of the appraisal, the comptroller on the sale thereof, shall bid for the state such amount, if necessary to prevent a sale of the premises at a less sum. If the premises are appraised at a sum less than such amount, the comptroller may bid the amount of the appraisement and no more. If the premises are struck off for a sum less than such amount, no greater sum shall be credited to the mortgagor or any other person, on account of such sale than the sum bid for the premises sold, deducting therefrom all costs and expenses of the sale and appraisal. The appraisers shall receive a reasonable compensation for their services, to be allowed by the comptroller and paid out of the treasury.
