- Q. What is the normal results of a landlady selling a property that is under a lease agreement?
- A: It depends on the terms of your current lease agreement. Generally if you have a valid lease agreement (more than a month to month lease) the seller of a property will assign the lease agreement rights to the new owner and the new owner will take the place as your landlord.
