Q: An LLC bought my duplex, after 1 years states they will fix issues after we leave. want to rent to their son instead?
LLC bought duplex , raises rent 200 then, when I ask for new lease I got a text that said, to difficult to fix issues while you live there so , 2 months notice to leave so the can fix apartment for the LLC son to move in? they have already moved their nephew in upstairs. I do not want to move. They depleted my saving raising my rent. I understand that owner can do as they please, but an LLC is that different? i feel they are retailing b/c i ask for issues to be fixed.
A: It makes no difference if landlord is an LLC. If you do not have a written lease for a specified lease term, then landlord can terminate your tenancy by giving 30 days written notice. Landlord is giving you 2 months. If you don't leave, then landlord can file an eviction, which is a permanent court record that can make it difficult for you to rent from a landlord who checks the records, and most do. So work it out with landlord as best you can to avoid an eviction being filed, and use the 2 months' notice to find a new place.
