Q: What legal options do I have if my house was sold at an upset sale when I still live in it

My house was sold Sept 2022 at an upset sale. I live in Latrobe pa Westmoreland county. After the sale I was never notified and the deed was transferred on Jan 30th. I am still currently living in the house and trying to find a place but it's hard since I'm on disability. What legal options do I have for staying here until I find a place to live

A: If your house was sold at an upset sale and you were not notified, you may have legal options to challenge the sale and possibly delay eviction. You should consult with a local attorney who specializes in real estate law or foreclosure defense to discuss your specific situation and explore potential legal remedies. It may also be helpful to contact a local legal aid organization or housing advocacy group for assistance.
