Foreclosure town

Holy Crap Ringo! I wish I could help you on this, but I can't. The same thing happened to my neice. They don't give you any time for adjustments. Maybe the bank will work out a deal. Tell them what you have to work with and see what they say, couldn't hurt at this point. I live in a community called Fore Ranch and the town calls it Fore Ranch Foreclosures. We have condos, townhomes, and homes here. Everywhere you look has a for rent/sale sign on it. I hope you still have your cabin. Hang in there, I hope you get some good news.

Our Cabin is paid for but it is at 6000 feet and we can't live up there in winter and it's 45 miles from town 1/2 dirt roads.
The word I got is that the bank won't get any bidders and will look to evict anyone still in property.
I am going to Property Managers today and negotiate a deal to use my deposit for the next 2 months rent. I will give them a liitle cash to sweeten the deal. Either that or the Owner gets nothing from me and I put my rent into an escrow account and wait for the new owners to contact me. There are other court filings I have read about too.
My main concern is getting leverage on my deposit, now, rather than later.
The new law states that the new owner is responsible to refund the deposit of any tennants. Rumor is, the Banks are renegging on paying it back. I don't want to have to go to small claims to get my money back.
I can win in court and still not get my money. Been there done that.

Have you considered consulting a lawyer about getting your deposit back? That doesn't seem right to lose that money.

My Good Karma is back.
I went to see my ex property manager, who use to manage this rental and she just got sued by our owner for defamation of all things and she hates this guy. She gave me some nice advice then said that she had a place opening up in a week or two that would be perfect for us and $50 a month cheaper. We went and looked at it and it is a second home on 4 acres and the owners are never home. Also it's up on a sunny hill 3 miles out of town. SWEET
It's way bigger than our existing place, but it has no garage or storage.
It's got a perfet fenced yard for my giant dog and it has 5 different fruit trees. What a view with 5 windows getting the morning sun.
I called back property manager and said we would take it. She said we can move in mid Nov and pay no deposit. She trusts us and likes us.
We are very happy now.
All this in 24 hours.
By the way, I decided not to pay rent this month and give them a 30 day notice on the 31st. I am breaching contract, but I don't believe they will pursue any legal judgement against me. They will simply take it out of my deposit when it is all said and done. I actually will increase our bank account through this whole change before christmas.
I can't complain about that.
