Of course. You are still living there and your landlord's finances do not impact yours. He is still entitled to rent or can simply evict you.

If a tenant's dishwasher breaks down after six months - is it the landlords responsibility to replace it?

It depends on what your lease says, but generally, the landlord is responsible for keeping all appliances that were supplied with the property in good working order. If you contact your landlord and the landlord refuses to fix the dishwasher, I recommend you contact your city hall to determine the department that issues renal licenses for your area. They might be able to point you in the right direction for your area.

Can your landlord store his personal belongings at your home?

Not unless one hasn't paid the rent due or is behind several months. The property is leased or rented - the landlord owns it - the owner can pretty much do what they want within the constraints of the law. If you have not paid rent, then the landlord does not need to provide access to the rental. There are limits to the amount of time they must allow you to have the contents returned, but the expectation is that it is days, not weeks or months. And, not at your convenience, but theirs. Check your local landlord tenant laws to see where you stand, and go from there.

If foreclosure proceedings are started but the loan was reinstated will it show negatively on a credit report?

Yes. Foreclosure proceedings do not begin in most states until you are a number of months behind in payments. That will negatively impact your credit report. I had foreclosure proceedings begin on my home, but I was able to short sell the home before it went to auction. On my credit report it says, "loan was paid for less than amount owed".

In a mortgage foreclosure process, the time between the foreclosure filling date and the auction sale is called the "Equity of Redemption Period".

Paid 4 month of rent when landlord wasn't paying mortgage. Landlord went into foreclosure and we had to move out. Do we have legal grounds to reclaim that 4 months of rent through small claims?

You could try, but the fact is, you owed him that rent up until the day the foreclosure sale happened. Whether or not he is paying the mortgage has nothing to do with your obligation to pay the rent. By federal law (and most states have even stronger laws) the bank should have given you plenty of time to move.
