Q: how much of a notice does my landlord need to give me if she wants to move into the condo I'm renting?
My landlord called me stating she wants to settle down here and wants to move back into the condo I'm renting. I'm on a month to month. I pay on time every month. Do I need written notice? How much time do I have ,legally, to move out?
She also wants to come in to see how she is going to "furnish" the place with a couple of friends (after calling me about 2 wks ago).
Can she do this?
A:
Assuming there never was a written lease, she must give you two months notice and you do not have to let her in.
If there was a written lease which expired and converted to the month to month, then she must give you at least two months notice, unless the lease called for more. Also, any terms in the lease that allowed her access for any reason would still be in effect.
