| My landlord recently went into foreclosure and didn't inform us. I found out when I received a letter from the Realtor acting as a representitive of the bank. However, this Realtor has already misinformed me as to my rights as a tenant - saying that although it's been only 10 days since I received the notice to evacuate the premises, and even though I paid my rent for November, that I am a 'tenant in sufferance' and that I am living here illegally - and refuses to provide me with the name of the bank who he represents, and who actually owns the property. My question is, how do I find out who the bank is, so that I can deal directly with them regarding the refund of my escrowed security deposits and our evacuation date? |

| The real estate agent is correct. When the bank foreclosed, it did not assume any lease or rental agreements you may have had with the former owner. It also did not get any of your security deposit escrow funds.When you receive a notice of eviction, you are expected to leave shortly. Any security deposit is an issue with the former owner, since that is the person with whom you have the rental agreement. You will probably need to take the former landlord to small claims court to recover the security deposit. |
