Upcoming Foreclosures

Is there a law in Missouri that forces land lords to reveal if the rental property is in foreclosure?

I have been reading a lot about instances where unscrupolous people who have homes going into foreclosure are renting the property out without telling the renters and all of a sudden a foreclosure arrives at the residence and the people who just paid rent and a deposit and stuff are being evicted within a couple months. Is there a law on Missouri books that forces land lords to reveal this information prior to renting the property in foreclosure? If not there isn't, there should be.

1. No...no state has such laws. The information can be easily obtain through your local building department/assessor office/county clerks office.
