Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Missouri

We rent a home in the state of Missouri and through no fault of our own will need to move in two months. The home owner must sell the home he is currently living in and move back into this one and his home will most likely be finalized in the next 60 days. We are a low-middle class family, my husband works two jobs to pay the bills and we do not have the money to move right now. We are wanting to rent and I am wondering if there are any programs to assist renters in situations such as this. Our landlord gave us a form for the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act(Pub. L. 111-203) but we just found out that this would only apply to the home owner. Any answers to help us in this situation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.

Your lease may prevent the homeowner from forcing you to move out early. Perhaps you should take your lease agreement to a civil practice attorney in your area, for a more specific opinion.

Good luck
