Do you need to change the landlord on tenancy contract upon selling the property?

Good morning,

If a property is sold with an active tenancy contract (with a legal eviction notice), does the landlord's name need to be changed with an addendum or new contract?

Does no new information need to be provided?

I look forward to your reply.

Hi M.,

Since this tenancy contract is already ongoing, you cannot make any changes to it.

However, you can send an email notifying him that you are the new landlord and for any future communication, he should directly contact you on your contact details.
