Here is an interesting question in the example case where he owes 500M on a 300M property ergo negative equity can the government still force the sale when the expected return is negative ergo the government expects to get nothing? Alternatively are seizures irrespective of expected return and if it turns out to be overvalued it’s his problem?
The government gets the money from the sale. If the sale is worth more than he owes the government, then he gets the extra. Trump is left to pay the loans off himself.
If this is as bad as the newspapers are saying then his creditors are already counting everything up and waiting for him to miss a payment so they can take whatever the government doesn’t. In some states they may be able to use this fraud ruling to demand the entire loan amount back immediately.

The government forces the sale and facilitates, they do not take the face value. This can be a real shit show.
A smart person should never allow the government to do the sale. These things should have been for sale months ago.
