Re: renting house that is in foreclosure

Most landlord/tenant residential contracts will contain language with the obligations of a tenant while the landlord is going through foreclosure proceedings.

Typically, you would have no obligations to pay rent once the home is foreclosed. However, you probably would be obligated to continue paying rent as long as the landlord retains official deed ownership.

I would have to review your lease contract to give you a definitive answer.

My office offers 1/2 hour consultations for $50.00 if you'd like to discuss your situation with an attorney.

Contact my office if you'd like to schedule such an appointment.
