Foreclosure Law In Florida

Question: Home in foreclosure bank changed locks?
My home has been in foreclosure for about a year now. I moved out about 8 months ago. The foreclosure hasn't gone through yet so I still am the deed holder. The problem is the banks changed the locks and I still have a few personal things inside. I know I should have gotten them out a long time ago but I didn't. I can get inside the house through an unlocked window in the backyard. My question is am I legally entitled to do that? I live in Florida if that matters. Please only answer if you know the law. Thanks.

Answer: The bank only changed the locks because you abandoned the property and they have a right to protect it.
You can get your possessions, and only your possessions...meaning no appliances or light fixtures or anything else you may have purchased and installed in the home.If you are talking about personal property that has nothing to do with the real estate, you can take it.
