I'd have referenced that in your subject line, I'm sure everyone clicking on this thread assumes that you are losing your property through foreclosure.

If that is true, the bank was probably violating the law (at least in CA, not sure about NV though I would expect the law to be similar in this regard). If you have a valid lease with the owner (at the time it is signed) then you have the absolute right to possess the premises. If a new owner acquires title ti the property, via foreclosure, auction or sale, he is still bound by the prior lease. Any attempt to intimidate the renter prior to expiration of a proper 30-day notice of lease termination could be actionable. I'd say your friends had a nice lawsuit if the story is as you describe.
