New RULES for Tenants that lived in a home that is foreclosed upon

  • Post-Foreclosure Protection for Tenants: Commencing January 1, 2011, a notice to terminate a residential tenant who remains after a foreclosure sale must generally include a statutory notice of the tenant's rights. This requirement, which sunsets on January 1, 2013, applies to an immediate successor-in-interest for one year after a foreclosure sale. The tenant's rights must be on a separate cover sheet or, for a 90-day termination, incorporated into the notice to terminate. Another provision of this bill protects a residential tenant's credit by generally prohibiting the court clerk from revealing unlawful detainer court records unless the plaintiff prevails at trial. Senate Bill 1149.
