can you evict someone to sell your house
If you want to sell a rental property, the first issue is does the tenant have a lease? Letâs say there is a lease and the tenant has eight months remaining. They cannot be evicted before the end of their lease, just because you want to sell. You can sell, but the buyer must agree to let the tenant stay. In addition, if the tenant has the right to renew their lease, then you and any buyer will have to honour that as well. If the tenant is on a monthly tenancy the only way to evict them is if the buyer is moving into the house on closing.
