It depends on the rules in your state. In some states, the bank only has to give you 30-days notice and in others, they must honor the lease. In some cases, if the house sells, the new owners have to honor the lease. You'll just have to check with your state laws. Banks have no desire to be landlords, so if they can legally kick you out, they will do so as soon as they can.
