<prompt> Human: so my name is shawn . im 26 years old i live in hollywood florida. i started renting a house in january and now it is july.my landlord told me the house would go up for short sale and that i had plenty of time to get my stuff together . he told me this like id say a week ago . the house is up for auction on the 16th of this month and now i have to go to a shelter and put my computer and stuff into a storage area. is this even legal ??? beyond that he has brought a new person into the house and they are sleeping in the living room. to make matters worse he also has a lock box on the thermostat to keep people from changing the temperature.and i feel im kinda screwed because i didnt sign any lease upon the agreement to the rental . but i have been paying him 500 dollars plus electric and water every month  <response>: Stop paying. Get out.You didnt sign a lease, that is going to cut both ways. Get out.
