Can the new landlord ask the tenant to leave before the contract ends?
Q: Dear sir/madam, I renewed my tenancy contract with my landlord 2 weeks ago (this is the 1st renewal, i.e I have stayed here for 1 month, and now renewed 2 weeks ago). The landlord had decided to sell the flat and did not tell me at the time of tenancy renewal in order for me to decide whether to stay or go. If he finds a buyer, can the buyer ask me to leave before the contract ends? And can the new buyer ask for a higher rent once he makes a contract with me? Questions & Answers
