The eviction will be dismissed and will need to be re-filed by the new owner Keep in mind an eviction is styled:Current Owner vs Tenant You as the new owner cannot change  the plaintiff nor can the previous owner be awarded possession of a property they no longer own

A tenant is almost $4,000 late with rent.Through my property manager, we were awarded judgement and possession after an eviction proceeding.

@Katherine Weekes Not an expert, but if you hold the property & mortgage in your name, you can be held personally liable & all of your assets are at risk: personal residence, 401k, savings acct, all of your investment properties, etc.This could happen in a worst case scenario where someone dies in your property & the jury awards a verdict beyond what your insurance covers OR if the person dies due to something excluded by your insurance such as mold.

The Tony award wining Scarsdale surprise!

If you sell a property with a VHR permit, it gets confiscated and awarded to the next person on the waiting list. 

So reading the article, the 10 pt scale requires a landlord to accept an applicant who scores 5 or better. 6 pts are deducted for being evicted but 2 pts are awarded for 12 months of on time paymentsSo literally a Tenant can be evicted every 2 years and pay rent on time in the interim!!!  

In addition to being a successful businesswoman I have a background as an award winning interior designer/ home stager, licensed private investigator, Florida Realtor and sales / marketing expert.

Treat your real estate like a business, take care of your properties and tenants, and protect your assets, just in case...These tenants just got awarded $1.6 million for a bed bug infestation that was not addressed promptly by the landlord: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/04/us/california-bedbug-lawsuit.html?

Nobody can guarantee you will win in court but it's normally pretty easy as long as you can verify your story with documentation.If you take the tenant to court and evict, you will also be awarded a judgement for whatever the tenant owes.

Especially since the airlines / hotels are known to devalue their awards charts.
