For a mortgage loan that has been foreclosed upon, does a mortgage servicer still need to abide by the eviction standards thereafter to remove a covered borrower from a home? The argument I am getting is that the language in the act only refers to landlords and their tenants. While looking at the specific language I agree that we are not in a landlord/tenant relationship, but were in a mortgagor/mortgagee relationship. For clarity, this would not be in cases where a mortgagee had rented to a third party covered servicemember, rather the mortgagee is covered. My knee jerk reaction is that we would still need to follow the rules here. I cannot find any specific direction other than seeing enforcement actions related to the area so that seems a pretty good indicator to me. Any thoughts?

Are you talking about the Tenants in Foreclosure Act or are you talking about evicting a servicemember at foreclosure?

Evicting a servicemember at or after foreclosure. specifically the rule at 50 USC 3951 (a)

Once you have foreclosed, you become the landlord or person with paramount title. I'd say you are subject to the provisions of that section of the SCRA. You would need a court order.
