Q: In the process of purchasing the multi tenant home I am currently in.I want to purchase tenant free.
I have been renting in the home that I am currently in contract with to purchase, there are tenants there currently. Their initial lease expired and is basically a month to month tenant. How can I begin the process of providing them notice, that upon closing (Scheduled for End of July 2018,) they need to vacate the premises. What is my legal standing at this point, what can I do to make sure that I am covered and they will vacate? How much notice is required?
A: Negotiate that term with the seller. You will not be the owner until after the consummation of the sale. If the seller refuses to deliver unoccupied, you may well have to engage an attorney to assist you with the eviction.
