Description
Virginia Residential Landlord Tenant Act; notice to tenant in event of foreclosure. Requires a landlord to notify the tenant, by certified mail, of a mortgage default, notice of mortgage acceleration, or notice of foreclosure sale relative to the loan on the dwelling unit. Notification must occur within 10 business days after written notice from the lender is received by the landlord.
