New foreclosure scam?

[dharmagirl]

I was under the impression that an agent (assigned by the bank) can simply show up at the property and change the locks if the occupant has not vacated in time.

Not sure if this is true.

I agree with DaCounselor.

Wait for the judicial eviction. Most likely the bank will offer you some money to move.

Yes, do sue the owner in small claims. When you get the judgment. Record a general lien against him.

How do you even know who owns the place now? Go to the county recorder’s office and look? I don’t think I’d turn over keys to someone just because they showed up at my door saying they are now the owner. I think I might even change the locks and wait until I could find out who the new official owner is. And taking the old landlord to court…do you mean the one who defaulted and lost the place? That sounds like a waste of time. I know that the bank that forecloses really wants to get the current renter out, without damage being done. At a minimum, I would ask for my deposit plus moving expenses in exchange for possession and the keys.

What a crazy world this has become.

It’s not a waste of time to go to court to get your judgment.

If you are owed your deposit back, you can go to court and ask the judge to order it be returned to you. There’s minimal cost for small claims court.

If the defendant does not show, you win by default. Then take the abstract of judgment to the recorder’s office and record it. That will attach any assets that he may own in the County.

Chance are pretty good that you’ll eventually collect. Remember, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Don’t let those FBs get away.
