An estate in this sense refers to the real estate owned by a decedent at the time of their death.

When you have a signed rental property lease and received a notice of auction for sale after leasing for two months is that fraudulent inducement from the landlord?

Some states have laws that preserve a lease (like, for a year, not month-to-onth) after a sale.

But, no, unless the lease says that he can't sell (and, I've never seen one that does), nothing prohibits the landlord from selling.

IRC Section 1241 specifies that payments received by the lessee for the cancellation of a lease are to be treated as a payment in exchange for the sale of the lease. Assuming you were using the property (as opposed to holding it in inventory, for example you were a real estate broker), the lease would be a capital asset. So the payment would be a capital gain (long or short term depending on how long you held the lease).
