 At any time within three months after any sale of property under a trust deed as provided in
Sections 57-1-23, 57-1-24, and 57-1-27, an action may be commenced to recover the balance
due upon the obligation for which the trust deed was given as security, and in that action the

of the indebtedness with interest, costs, and expenses of sale, including trustee's and attorney's
fees, exceeds the fair market value of the property as of the date of the sale. In any action brought
under this section, the prevailing party shall be entitled to collect its costs and reasonable attorney
