California,
Im tenant and I was wondering if you could help understand my rights. My Landlord is selling, its been listed since October my lease is up on January 1st. Does this mean they can force me to move January 1st? Although the Landlord claims they wouldn't do that and anything after the 1st will be a month to month. I just don't trust them, especially since my original lease when we first moved in was in November 1st with lease ending on 11-30-14 but last year I discovered mold in my kitchen after living in the home for a year. It took them over a month for repairs to be made, and they ended up redoing the countertops as well to improve the over all look of the kitchen. During this time they did not make us resign the lease until 1-28-14 with extension of term to be ending on 1-1-15. with a rent increase of $25. So back in October I asked if we could move in November like our original terms of course they said no and its a 2 way street were both bound in the lease there fore we cant move and they cant sell until lease is up. They claim there trying to sell to an investor but really I think they would sell to anyone that wants it. Once January hits what are my rights or will my family be out on the street only a few days after Christmas. This is what saddens me the most that for there gain its my family's loss of Christmas. Should I start packing now? can we sit it out ?what is cash for keys? Any advice at this point would be wonderful.
Thanks for your time
