Hello,
Normally you can get some idea of whether the property is occupied or not from cars in the driveway, peaking through windows, opening the mailbox, knocking on the door, etc. If there are no signs of someone occupying the property, or you are unable to get in contact with them, you can leave a notice that you're the new owner and to call you within 48 hours or else you will drill the lock.
If there is an occupant in your property (assuming your property is in Florida) and they do not have a bona fide lease, or they refuse to show you one, then we can file a Motion for Writ of possession in your foreclosure case and get permission to get the Sheriff out to give you possession. If you would like more information about a Motion for Writ of Possession on a foreclosure property please contact our office and we can assist you. 1-877-871-8300 www.kelleygrantlaw.com
Best Regards,
Jerron Kelley, Esq.
Hi,
Attorney Jerron Kelley is Correct.
As foreclosure listing in Florida broker. I get a copy of the Certificate of Sale
with your name on it (It will be in public Records or from the Clerk of Courts)
and Post it with your Contact Information on the Front door.
However, in most cases in Florida, you have to wait 10-days for the
Certificate of Title to be issued. As the attorney said, you can file for
Writ of Possession. I had better experience in offering CASH FOR KEYS
to all the Adult Occupants.
An attorney can prepare the Cash for Keys offer.
Many Tenants and hold over owners or squatters usually choose to leave
rather than face eviction. Most do not or can not provide valid lease.
I have had tenants that found out the place was foreclosed and purchased
the property from the new owner. At an agreeable price.
