Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida
I am renting a house through a property management firm and found out recently that the owner, who owns our house is currently in foreclosure. Fannie Mae has posted a notice on the house recently. I am wondering who I now pay my rent to? If I have to pay it? What is the possiblity of a relocation allowance?
Thank you

You must continue to pay rent to the owner in accordance with the terms of your lease. Once the how is foreclosed and the lender becomes the new owner, you will continue to pay rent to the lender. You will get written notice when that happens.
