Oh. Shit.
I've just learned that the house I rent in was just forclosed and auctioned off this morning. I am in the process of finding out what recourse I have. I'm hoping I can just buy it. Does anyone know anything about the rules in DC?
UPDATE: Regarding comments so far. The trick is that the 'lease' is actually just a rental agreement and is probably only useful in establishing squatters' rights. I wasn't at the auction, because no one told us it was taking place (about which I'm more than a bit annoyed). I'm planning on calling around, etc., but of course this happens just as I get mad busy at work AND this weekend is Yom Kippur (hm, maybe this is Jarma (Jewish Karma) for something).
