Question

Good morning. My landlord has given me a sixty day notice to vacate.

The reason is; he selling the Townhome I currently live in. I've lived here 6 years.

The property manager is consistently calling and bothering me to list the house, to have an open house. What are my rights? I also have an illness I'm trying to work around, there are days I get out of bed.. it's there right to sell... I need time!!



Answer

I'm afraid it sounds like they are doing it exactly by the book except for the open house. They can't force you to do that, but showings on reasonable notice (24 hrs) you must comply with. Also, having given notice of it being listed for sale, they can give you verbal notices of showings rather than a written one each time for the next 120 days.



Answer

If you are on a month to month tenancy, the sixty day notice is appropriate. If it is a fixed term lease, then you have the right to remain until the end of the term. I agree with Mr. McCormick as to the notices for showing the house.
