TELL THE GREEDY GUY ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS
ARE YOU RENTING A RESIDENCE WHICH IS BEING FORECLOSED UPON?
It used to be if you were renting a place in Nevada that got foreclosed on you could get served with 3 day vacate notice. If you didn’t get the hell out a new owner could file to have you evicted.
Now the laws have changed As of May 2009 a federal law was enacted called the Helping Families Save Their Homes Act. The bill says that anyone who is renting a property that was foreclosed on anywhere in America must be given 90 days to find a new place to live.
If you have a lease that is not expired you should be able to stay to the end of that lease.
If the new owner insists that you leave try and educate him about the new law. If the new owner comes and tries to muscle you out in the street call the police.
Most of the time a new owner will let you stay until the end of the lease. As long as you do pay on time and do not breach the terms and conditions of the lease you should be okay. If the new owner wants to make the home his primary residence and can prove he is going to live in the home then you will have to leave. But if it is a lending institution or an investor that bought the home that won’t be the case. In most of the cases I have seen the new owner cannot evict and does not want to evict and will wait until the lease is up..
