The repossession of a house, called a foreclosure, is a matter between the property owner (the Landlord) and his Mortgage Lender. The tenant is not involved. As long as the Landlord still has control of the property he is still the one to make the rent payments to, and can still evict you if you don't. When the Bank takes over they will give you proper instructions, according to state laws, on whether to and when to leave, or how to pay your rent.
