O another question...?

Question

..Can a person with the house no longer in their name still collect rent?
N.

Really....my LL thinks she can...

Answer 1

The short answer is yes, but only in certain circumstances. Ift sounds as though you "were" an owner of record, but regardless, here's a couple of the most common situations that come to mind....

1. You are renting the house and sublet all or part of it (very common in college towns);

2. You lease-option the home and in turn L/O to another buyer-tenant (very common with investors)

There are many other situations too, but in either of these, you don't have to own the property, only control it, to collect rents.

Answer 2

Huh? If you don't own the property you have no legal entitlement to any rents paid by any tenants. That should be so obvious that it hardly bears asking the question.
