For the time being he's living up to his part of the agreement with you. Of course you owe him rent. How can this even be a question?

Or are you asking about what you can get away with?

You owe him rent up until the date of foreclosure.

I have been dealing with pre-foreclosure and foreclosure properties lately. When I find tenants living in a house on the day of foreclosure, I instruct them to stop paying rent immediately.

Up until then though, keep paying.

Default You Are Asking Us Permission to Be a Thief?

If you welch on your agreement then you will be a thief...
It would be in his moral rights to screw you over by changing the locks and keeping your belongings hostage. Of course you can sue. But after several months of missing your belongings, winning a judgement, you will not collect a penny because you can't get blood from a stone.... You will spends thousands of dollars in legal bills....which would be poetic justice for your conspiracy to steal free housing from him. Your computer will be the first thing he holds hostage from you....

If he welches on his deal with the bank, that is his business. HE WILL *PAY* the price by losing his equity in his home as well as hurting his credit rating. If you welch on your deal then you are attempting to steal frre housing from him... If your goal was to make yourself look poorly on the 2+2 forum.....then you succeeded.

If I ever meet you in person I will keep one hand on my wallet at all times lest you try to rip me off as well....

If you signed a lease w/ him and he is going to break that lease I would say no, otherwise you owe him for any time you stay there. But just talk to him about it, seems pretty easy to me.

1) What lease includes a clause for if they foreclose on his home?

2)What do you mean talk to him? "So hey, should I still pay you rent?"...."Yes."

3)Why did he quit his second job if he knew that it would lead to foreclosure?

You sound like one of those people that has a distant cousin win the lottery and demand that he give you a percentage. He won free money, why shouldn't he have to share! This guy is screwing himself royally by having the bank foreclose on his houses. He took a shot at real estate and like many, he went busto, now you think he owes you free rent? Wow.

His arangement with the bank is between him and the bank, and has nothing to do with you. You have agreed to pay him in exchange for your room, so as long as he provides a room, you are obligated to pay rent. What happens between him and the bank is none of your buisness.

Of course, if you want to be just as much of a douche as him, you could stop paying rent, and live there rent free untill you are evicted, but that wouldn't be any better than what he is doing.

Yes you owe him rent. I don't see how him not paying his mortgage means you don't have to pay your rent.
