As long as you are the owner of record on the property you can collect the rent. If you are behind on your payments, that is no reason for a tenant not to pay you. Afterall, you may hit the lottery and payoff your mortgage before the foreclosure sale date.
Your financial condition is not relivent to your tenant paying you rent. As long as you own the property you have the right to rent it out and collect the rent.
can anyone help with some supporting case law?
We are going to court....
Going to court for what?
she refuses to pay rent because she thinks the house is going to go into forecloser so I served her the 3 day pay or quit. Yes I am the owner of the property. Now I am preparing the complaint pleading and wanted to include some case law in my memorandum of points and authorities. Her case is based off of her insecurities of the property possibly going into foreclosure.
