Bad surprise by landlord = WE CLOSED 8/21/18 - YAY!

[Anonymous]

so we called the lawyer handling the foreclosure to see what they could tell us. the girl upstairs did the talking since shes the one with the baby haha.

the rep told us whether someone buys it or the bank takes over they are legally obligated to keep the utilities on until they evict us which we will get get notice in the mail and its normally 30 days after that. whew!

Good luck, and thanks for all the updates.

I'd definitely not trust the landlord regarding the foreclosure (or anything else) and proceed with finding new housing. He obviously didn't have your best interests in mind when he failed to mention the foreclosure for months and months. Perhaps he's just trying to keep your rent checks coming in as long as possible until suddenly the foreclosure is 'back on again' for reasons 'out of his control'.

I would have pressed him a bit on this - how do you "stop" a foreclosure, when you are not the plaintiff? Could be he asked for arbitration and that could lead to a loan modification and might allow him to keep the property. That process usually takes a few months, though.

he said he "took money out of his savings" and brought the mortgage up to to date.. we all know the son keeps bailing him out..

whatever the case we are proceeding -

i spoke to the mortgage lady she said the app had to be reviewed by her manager as i am currently out on TDI(short term disability in Rhode Island) as i had surgery on my feet) and i will hear back in 24-48 hours.

and yes we are contuining to pay rent. idc what he does with it i just want a record that WE were paying so that he cant say we werent and also to show whoever in the future

[Anonymous]

oh yeah... he suddenly remembered he could take money out of his savings to prevent a foreclosure that was already in progress. No red flags there at all. Or maybe Donald Trump stopped by personally and gave him a 'pardon'. 

Probably a good idea to keep paying your rent. But definitely get your exit strategy worked out.
