The foreclosure process does not nullify an otherwise binding rental agreement. I said "process" because the homeowner can stop a foreclosure at anytime by curing the default (typically by paying the past due amount owed). The actual foreclosure in Texas would cancel any inferior rental agreements. If you are a tenant of a property that is in foreclosure, there is a new law that provides additional time to vacate the property in the event the foreclosure actually happens. You can read the new law here:
