This property is in a auction bank file a deed of trust house is in auction still pay rent?

please help me land lord want to collect rent first auction was on 6/8/2009 I pay my rent that month and he want me to pay this month all so


As long as the landlord is the legal owner of the home, you must continue paying rent. Once a new owner has completed the sale, you may either have to vacate or, if the owner continues the lease, you would then pay rent to that person.

Yes you pay rent. You are living there and must pay what you owe.

Otherwise you are evicted and that destroys your credit and any chance of renting anywhere.

You only have to pay him rent from the day he bought it.

So you owe him for a prorated amount of 23 days for the month of June. Just take your rent mulitply by 23 and divide by 30.

Then you owe him for the month of July.

You technically owe the previous owner and/or trustee for rent on 6/7 and prior. If you paid for may and not June yet, you legally owe one of them 7 days worth of rent. With that said, they probably aren not going to chase you down for 7 days worth of rent. I'd say in 999 cases out of 1000 the previous owner doesn't even bother sending a notice.
