I am renting and my LL is in foreclosure... How do I buy?

Hello! 

I am renting a townhome in Southern California and I keep getting notice do default letters.( our land lord has not changed his mailing address) I have approached my land lord about it and he said not to worry and that he was out of the country and is now caught up...... not sure I am buying that... someone has been in the county cashing my rent checks :)

We like where we live and would consider buying it at a discount. How do we go about that? If it is in pre foreclosure can we purchase it? if it goes to full foreclosure can we purchase it? Since we have been renting the prop do we have some sort of first right or refusal? 

I have checked with the county and the property taxes are current so we cannot get a tax lien on it...

Looking for some thoughts and ideas.

Thank you!
