The owner changed… must the tenant leave?
The transfer of ownership to a new owner does not affect the tenants right to continue occupying the property under the lease concluded with the previous owner, provided that the lease bears a certain date.
Two questions must be kept apart. Ownership: a sale changes the landlord; it does not end the lease. The buyer takes the property together with its tenant. Eviction: it has its own grounds and procedure under Article 25, as amended by Law No. 33 of 2008, including twelve months notice through the Notary Public or by registered mail where the property is sought on expiry for sale or personal use. The title deed tells you what you own. The lease tells you when you may use it.
Before buying a tenanted property, did you review the lease as carefully as you reviewed the title deed?
