New Federal Law Mandates 90-day Eviction Notice to Tenants Affected by Residential Foreclosures

A new federal law provides a minimum 90 days' eviction notice to most tenants affected by residential foreclosures. This is 30 days more than the current California law which provides 60 days' notice.

This allows month-to-month tenants about three months to find a new place or work out a rental agreement with the new owner.

Why would you want these

Why would you want these renters to still pay for a 90 day notice. Haven't they been through enough lately with triflen landlords who have just been taking their money.

Will landlords accede?

Interesting article.

My only question is how you insure tenants are ACTUALLY getting their 90 days.

This law will change again

This law will change again very soon, I believe.

90 day notice

If I buy a property at a trustees sale and there is a tenant there, do they have to pay rent for the 90 days, or do they just stay there for free? If they are required to pay, and they do not, can I serve them witha 3 day notice to pay or quit, and proceed with the eviction before the 90 days are up?
