"Patricia,
Whenever you occupy a property that is no longer yours, e.g. after the property
has been sold at a foreclosure auction, then you are considered a tenant; then
the owner is a landlord and you are a tenant. In order for the landlord, the
lender, to evict the occupant or tenant,you, it must follow the state's tenant & landlord laws."

This comes across as a legal opinion whether meant to or not. Frankly I have seen nothing of the sort in dealing with banks for 18 years. Frankly, a person that stays after foreclosure could just as easily be considered a trespasser. There is nothing that my non-lawyer mind can think of that would define you as any kind of renter. Where is your lease? What rents have you paid?

Not trying to be harsh. Just questioning this concept. You need to talk to an attorney. This forum is advise from others. But don't necessarily take it as Gospel. We disagree with each other on a fairly regular basis :>)
