What is the name of your state? California

Can you break this down for me, it is out of my mth-to-mth rental agreement.

"Notice may be given orally to show the Premises to actual or prosective purchasers provided Tenant has been notified in writing within 120 days proceeding the oral notice that the Premises are for sale and that oral notice maybe given to show the Premises"

Mbrooks, look in your previous thread at what I quoted from the Ca LL/Tenant handbook, it mentions the 120 days if a property is for sale.

Then look here and it mentions :

Special rules apply if the purpose of the entry is to show the rental to a purchaser. In that case, the landlord or the landlord's agent may give the tenant notice orally, either in person or by telephone...

http://www.dca.ca.gov/legal/landlordbook/living-in.htm

So your landlord (who I actually admire because is really following the rulebook here) is telling you that after they tell you they are selling the house they may give you a call and tell you of prospective buyers coming by. That the 24 hour written notice that is usually given, can be waived.

I am fully cooperative with the real estate offices who is wanting to walk through the house with clients, thats not an issue nor is anything else. I was basicly wanting to know about the portion of the paragraph that states "provided tenant has been notified in WRITING within 120 days proceeding...." . I never received any type of written notice that the property was going up for sale (its not a big deal any longer because I am over the immediate shock). A few property mgmt companies within the local area stated that this particular realtor whom prepared our agreement is liable for their noncomplience.

I am just asking questions I highly doubt that I will act upon any of the info I receive, I just really like the knowledge. I am a Paralegal student but haven't yet gone into the field of real estate law.
