MEMORANDUM OPINION

BERNARD MARKOVITZ, Bankruptcy Judge.

Accredited Home Lenders, Inc. seeks to have stricken from the record a mortgage satisfaction piece indicating that a mortgage debtors Paul and Darla Lauver granted it in 2004 was satisfied. It also seeks to have the mortgage reinstated on the record.

The chapter 7 trustees in these cases maintain that because a prospective purchaser of the property subject to the “satisfied mortgage” would qualify as a bona fide purchaser under Pennsylvania law, they are able to avoid the mortgage in accordance with § 544(a)(3) of the Bankruptcy Code.
