Q: I live in a apartment and how i got to live in this apartment is by the owner. He put me in the apartment a year ago to
Date. Now that he sold the apartments he kicking me out. Can he do this to me
A: If you are a tenant, then you have protections and he can only "kick you out" by following the law and giving you proper notice to vacate.
Gregory L Abbott agrees with this answer
A: Of course he can - you do not necessarily get to live there for the rest of your life. That said, the owner still has to comply with all the legal requirements to remove you if you do not leave voluntarily. Exactly what those requirements are depends upon a variety of details and facts not listed in your posting. If you really want to know your exact rights, review everything with a landlord-tenant attorney. A single visit is likely to answer all your questions and let you know what your exact rights are. Good luck.
