DO NOT give money to the LL befiore you speak to the bank.
You may have to make payments directly to the bank.
If that is your obligation, and, if you mistakenly give the money to the LL instead then you may end up owingthe money to the bank who won't bother chasing after the LL for you. It will be your problem to come up with the money.

If you are being foreclosed on you likely have a lot of things on your mind. One of those things is to know how much time you have from the time you are foreclosed on until you need to be out. In Missouri that time is 80 days.
Okay, we need to compartmentallize here: 1. The house is being foreclosed 2. There are things that need to be fixed here and the landlord promised to fix them Issue number 1 is between the landlord and his lender, not the tenant. So as long as the landlord has control of the property, he still can collect rent from the tenant and evict the tenant for non-payment of the rent or for other violations of the terms of the lease. Issue number 2 is between the tenant and the landlord. If the tenant needs repairs to the home that is vital to living in the home, such as water heater problems, then the tenant has the option of having the item(s) repaired and the rent offset by those expenses, or terminating the lease by moving out if the situation is inconducive to living in the unit. If the tenant chooses to repair the items then he must give the landlord a notice of at least seven days before the next rent is due that he will do such repairs and offset the rent accordingly. The tenant must then turn in receipts to the landlord in the amount of expenses, and pay the remaining amount of rent. The repair must not be frivolous, and of reasonable costs. The tenant may not charge for his own labor.
