Foreclosure Attorney Florida

Question: Is it Illegal to Collect rent on a property that is in foreclosure?

I am a landlord for a trailer park. The property is in foreclosure. The property is owned by a development company. There is attorney calling me and telling me I cannot collect rent b/c of the foreclosure or they will take me to jail. Yet my boss tells me to keep collecting... What should I do? Is the attorney trying to bully me into giving the bank money behind my bosses back? Or am I really in danger of going to jail?

Fyi this is in the state of Florida

Answer: Can the bank come up with an assignment of rents or a rent execution order? If they can, then you will have to hand over the money to them.

As a landlord, don't you have an attorney you could speak with?

P.S. There is a document called an assignment that allows a lender to collect rents from the tenants of a borrower in default. There doesn't need to be an actual foreclosure, just a default, for this to kick in. This document assigns the tenants leases and rents to the lender without exception if the borrow defaults. Most investment property loans have this. If the lender for some reason doesn't have this, then the landlord gets the money up until an actual foreclosure ... unless there is a court order that says otherwise.

Foreclosure Attorney Tampa Florida

Residential real estate market is not performing very well. We all know. Should we take care of neighborhood shopping center, condo project or office park goes bust?

According to experts, the meltdown of commercial real estate after collapse of housing could prolong and we have already seen unemployment slogging.

Till now real estate foreclosures had been seen proceeding smoothly for commercial missteps. It is evident from the case of St. Peterburg’s BayWalk entertainment complex and also the never-built Westshore Beach Club in Tampa.

In the Tampa Bay, the office properties and also the shopping centers have shed about 30% of their value. This is, when combined with the debt of commercial real estate coming due over next 3 years which is $1.2 trillion.
Let us take note of the following also:

•    The community banks in Florida started investing in the commercial real estate after the meltdown of residential housing there. At least fifty percent of the lending in real estate there is commercial, construction and also land development loans. It has surpassed the residential lending.
•    The failures of banks will lead more tightening in credit. This will result in depriving the businesses of capital in their operation and expansion there. Hence, it may drive down unemployment in the area.
•    After the ongoing residential foreclosures the judges in the Hillsborough, Pinellas and Pasco fear too much of commercial foreclosures. This has also leading in delaying of the selling and appraising process of those real estate that are troubled.

Chief Judge Thomas McGrady of Pinellas-Pasco County Circuit says, “It is coming… And it could break the whole system.”

One thing is sure. Everyone of us fear catastrophe. According to Eric Odom, broker of Tampa commercial real estate, at the time of last real estate bust in early 1990s, too many office buildings were empty in the downtown Tampa. The important troubled projects that can be easily recalled were the skyscrapers SunTrust Financial Center and the 100 North Tampa.

Odom said, “We don’t have the towers standing empty like we did last time… Most of the speculation this time around was in residential real estate.”
However, the attorneys of real estate, Marsh Rainey and Scott Brown, who are surveying the market spotted recently too many turmoil on the ground.

He says that it is not usually the big office projects causing the problems, but it is the glut of office strips. He adds that shopping centers and also the subdivisions which were not either occupied completely or built fully are defaulting on debts.
