Tenant-landlord Concord NC (foreclosure, lease, house)

[caramel52]

Tenant landlord- security deposit: Which one owes: landlord1 or landlord2: I checked on renting a house. landlord1 showed me the house. He said he had sold the property to someone else(landlord2). He showed me where man2 was. I talked signed lease & paid security deposit. Latter part of 2010 man1 came to house & told me he had the property back & I would be paying him the rent..ok..now I have moved into another house still renting from landlord1. I signed a lease & paid another security deposit. I asked landlord1 about the security deposit from the other house & he said by I had paid it to landlord2. The only thing he got back was the property....so landlord1 or landlord2 owes?.........

Is this a trick question?

When ownership changes, the security deposit should be transfered to the buyer or person who receives the property. I do not know how this works in the case of a foreclosure. If the house was sold back to LL1, he should have your deposit. I'd recommend you find a different landlord since this crowd seems to not really have their stuff together.
