There''s a strange twist to this property. The land was purchased with mortgage. Then, some time later, a double-wide was placed on the property and the mortgage adjusted but the paperwork to place a lien on the mobile home was never filed. Now that the property has been included in their bankruptcy, the mortgage co. has been told they only have recourse on the land they do have a lien for. The landlord said they want me just to pay the rent to them directly and they would be calling me. She was speaking of the mortgage company (I''m pretty sure). Do I work directly with the mortgage company or would the trustee be involved? With this strange case, if I did work with the mortgage company, wouldn''t I olly have to pay them the % they actually have the lien for on the property? Who would the rest of the rent go to? How, also, is all this affected by not having a lease, only a rental agreement?
Unless and until you hear from a Trustee, you must continue making payments pursuant to the terms of your rental agreement.
