Re: Foreclosure
You can stay in the premises even after auction. Under RPAPL 713(5), you would have to vacate the premises after a 10 day notice to quit has been served and after "The property has been sold in foreclosure and either the deed delivered pursuant to such sale, or a copy o such deed, certified as provided in the civil practice law and rules, has been exhibited to [you]."
