Default getting letters that house is being sold at auction 5/29

I rent in delray beach Florida and im getting letters addressed to my landlord or current resident from laywers saying that the house im livening in is being sold at auction.i also got a call from some guy saying he works for a property management company and if i dont pay my them they are going to evict me.

there are 3 cases against my landlord for foreclosure one has been foreclosed on and he has the one i live in as his.
(EDIT) This is the case that in mentioned in the letters but i still dont have and address there is only case numbers and nothing else

Default Re: renting and hetting letters that house is being sold at auction

I wish to inform you that rent will be paid to the owner of the building. The owner is paid till the time foreclosure procedure does not change owner or untill you do not receive order from court. You can ask property management company to obtain court order in order to have rent. If you are having a fixed lease then you cannot be evicted by new owner after foreclosure.

As long as the property is owned by your LL, you are obligated to pay the rent to them.

Once the property is sold or ownership is transferred to another party, you must pay your rent to that person.

The sale date and the transfer date may not be the same date. If you are unsure, you may wish to place your money into an escrow account until you can determine the proper recipient of your rent.

With the case number, you should be able to get access to the court file. Follow up with the court clerk. You are entitled to know who now owns the house and to whom you are to pay rent. Without that information you are in the dark, as you know. I would not pay the management company until they provide you proof of the new owner and that they are managing for same. Living in Florida you are aware there are many scams being run around foreclosed homes -- and also foreclosures that have not stood a legal test. While not implying that is the case here, it is just prudent to get the proof of who the new owners are and that the management company is acting for them.

As long as rent is paid, you are entitled to remain in the house until given notice as the law requires to vacate. As to any new owners, the notice you got is that the house is going up for auction on 5/29 Z(today). It may not sell.
