Webcoach, Other/Just Looking in San Diego, CA

how long are banks allowing renters to stay in the bank owned homes before they are giving notice in SD?

Asked Thu Jun 25 2009, 07:48 by Webcoach  -  Foreclosure in San Diego  -  4 answers
Fred Eckert- Chicago Title answered:
Webcoach,
Robert's additional information and Sharyn & Victoria's article are very useful. You might also consider doing the following...
Offer the lender this.. that you are willing to pay some smaller amount of rent, in exchange for the lender allowing you to stay until the property is sold. Also offer to have the home clean for showings and you just might be able to stay with the lender's blessing. - Thu Jun 25 2009, 17:23
Webcoach,
Take a look at this link

and go to the section....


•Establishes protections for renters living in foreclosed homes One of the often overlooked problems in the foreclosure crisis has been the eviction of renters in good standing, through no fault of their own, from properties in foreclosure. To address the problem of these tenants being forced out of their homes with little or no notice, this legislation will require that in the event of foreclosure, existing leases for renters are honored, except in the case of month-to-month leases or owner occupants foreclosing in which cases a minimum of 90 days notice will be required. Parallel protections are put in place for Section 8 tenants. - Thu Jun 25 2009, 12:21

John N, Home Buyer in Philadelphia, PA

What to do after winning a trustee sale? (Checklist)

Asked Mon Jun 22 2009, 14:22 by John N  -  Foreclosure in San Diego  -  1 answer
Fred Eckert- Chicago Title answered:
John,
I would consider offering the people living in the property, if any, the money you would spend on an eviction. You might be surprised that they would accept, do less damage and maybe move out earlier than if you started an eviction. They might even make good tenants.
We can issue a title policy as an owners policy as soon as you get the trustees deed recorded (I have a one page request for that) and will even issue a binder if you want one. We can do this without an escrow. Let me know where to fax or email the form. Please call me if you have questions. 619.507.5688
Note: I have a video on buying at trustee sales at http://www.youtube.com/user/3fredeckert3 - Mon Jun 22 2009, 16:26
