I am renting a place and just found out the house has a sale date a minium bid a levey date and a judgement date. I want to know what happens now? I haven't been notified by my landlord of such a problem and was wondering what happens to me and my family as tenants?

If I was a tenant, I would go to the tax sale and buy the property for taxes. And then follow the redemption rules for your state on tax sales.

Your landlord is still the owner of the property the sale is completed and the ownership is changed by the state rules of the tax sale..

How did you find this out? What documents did you receive?

The property is so run down, and I don't think it is worth the minium bid on it.

I didn't receive anything, but I googled the address and it popped up for my local sheriff's office and had a court order type notice stating saying there was a minium bid and the date of the sale, the levey date, and the judgement date. They were all dated this year.

Did it give any reason for the auction? Like a tax sale or something like that? What happens could depend on the reason for the auction.

Do you have a lease?

P.S. If you have a follow-up question or info please Use the ANswer options, not comments.

The levy date would be the date that the sheriff posted the property with notice of the foreclosure.
