BLACK, Judge.
              Paul and Susan Doyle1 challenge the final judgment of mortgage

foreclosure in favor of CitiMortgage, Inc. Though the Doyles raise several challenges to

the final judgment, we find merit only in their assertion that there was insufficient

evidence to support the final judgment figures.2 We reverse and remand for further

proceedings as to this issue and affirm the remaining issues without comment.

              At the bench trial, CitiMortgage's representative was presented with a

proposed final judgment and asked to recite the current amount due on the loan. The

representative testified that the total amount due on the loan was $365,938.51. The

proposed final judgment was not admitted into evidence, and the only other evidence

admitted that supports the amount of indebtedness is the loan payment history which

accurately reflects the principal balance.3

              "A damages award must be supported by competent, substantial

evidence." Wagner v. Bank of Am., N.A., 143 So. 3d 447, 448 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014).




              1
                Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc., a nominee for Quicken
Loans, Inc., and Waterways of Naples Homeowners' Association, Inc., were also named
defendants in the foreclosure action. However, they have made no formal appearance
in this appeal.
              2
                 The Doyles' argument regarding the sufficiency of the evidence
supporting the final judgment figures was not raised below. However, Florida Rule of
Civil Procedure 1.530(e) provides that "[w]hen an action has been tried by the court
without a jury, the sufficiency of the evidence to support the judgment may be raised on
appeal whether or not the party raising the question has made any objection thereto in
the trial court or made a motion for rehearing, for new trial, or to alter or amend the
judgment."
              3
              The final judgment reflects that the total amount due on the loan is
$365,938.51, which is the sum of the principal balance ($281,278.46), interest
($66,071.74), escrow advances ($17,310.31), property evaluations ($588), and property
inspections ($690).



                                              -2-
Though the principal balance contained in the final judgment is supported by the loan

payment history that was admitted without objection, there was no other evidence

admitted to support the remaining figures in the final judgment. As such, the testimonial

evidence presented to establish the total amount of indebtedness was inadmissible

hearsay and the total amount of indebtedness is not supported by competent,

substantial evidence. See id. (holding that the damages award was not supported by

competent, substantial evidence where the payment history admitted at trial did not

reflect the amount of damages awarded for property inspections and costs of

collection); Sas v. Fed. Nat'l Mortg. Ass'n, 112 So. 3d 778, 779-80 (Fla. 2d DCA 2013)

(holding that the amount of indebtedness was not supported by competent, substantial

evidence because the testimony regarding this amount concerned business records not

admitted into evidence).

              The Doyles contend that this matter should be reversed and remanded

with directions for the trial court to enter an order of involuntary dismissal pursuant to

Wolkoff v. American Home Mortgage Servicing, Inc., 153 So. 3d 280 (Fla. 2d DCA

2014). Wolkoff is distinguishable because none of the evidence admitted in that case

supported the final judgment figures. See id. at 283. Therefore, we reverse and

remand for further proceedings to determine the amount of debt owed. See Wagner,

143 So. 3d at 448; Sas, 112 So. 3d at 780.

              Affirmed in part; reversed in part; remanded for further proceedings.
