Property seller sent an eviction notice to the tenant before sale. Should the new owner send a new one?
Good morning
I would like to know if one buys a tenanted house with an already served notice of eviction to the tenant, does the new owner have to re-serve a new 12 months notice, or does the first notice remain in force?
I read that if the sales contract mentioned that a notice has already been served, the new owner does not have to serve a new notice.
Could you please advise?
What should the sales contract say exactly?
Also, since the current owner already served notice, can he also ask for a rent increase if he does so before 90 days of the contract renewal?
Thanks in advance
According to the provisions of the Dubai Rental Disputes Center's Court of Appeal, which established the principle that the new landlord is entitled to benefit from the notice sent by the previous landlord to the tenant, the new landlord does not need to resend a new eviction notice for the purpose of sale or personal use.
Submit a legal notice confirming the previous date.
If the eviction notice is a valid one, then the new owner needs not to send a new eviction notice.
He has to serve only the notice regarding the transfer of the title deed.
