    Comment [GT13]: Write a couple of lines about
    I realize that banks traditionally do not view themselves as landlords, even after acquiring renter- the impact that being driven from your home will
    have on you and your family
    occupied properties. However, the passage of the Protecting Tenants at Foreclosure Act (PTFA)
    removes any doubt that banks are landlords after foreclosure. In addition, with the practical
    realities of the current real estate market most properties will sit vacant for an extended period of
    time if tenants like me are forced to leave.

    I urge you to adopt the attached proposal from Tenants Together and to allow me to continue to
    stay in my home as rent-paying tenant. I look forward to your written response to this letter.
