Normally, when the period of a residential lease expires, it goes automatically to month-to-month. The terms don't change. By that, I mean if you're paying to rent a whole property, you get the whole property. If the landlord wants to take part back, make your objections quickly or else it will appear you've agreed - "renegotiated".
Tenant and lessee are the same thing, they are a person who rents property from a lessor who own property that he wants to lease.
I am presuming we have three components here: a landlord, a tenant, and a subtenant. The landlord in this case is presumably renting to a tenant, while the tenant is presumably renting to a subtenant. I presume that tenant has a lease while the subtenant doesn't. The tenant becomes the landlord for the subtenant. Since there is no lease (in most states subletting does not involve a lease) in this case, the tenant who is the subtenant landlord can evict the subtenant. While the main landlord can evict the tenant -which automatically evicts the subtenant -only the tenant can evict the subtenant. But the main landlord can evict all by evicting the tenant.
A landlord is generally a person owns property for rent. A tenant is someone who rents property from a landlord.
No.
The rules vary from state to state, but are all basically the same: generally, a tenant has the right to a peaceful, quiet enjoyment of the property they are renting, without fear of victimization or harassment by either the landlord or other individuals. Furthermore, the tenant has the right to the possession of the rental property as long as the terms of the lease, including payment frequency, are abided by, and may not be removed from their home except by legal means.
The property may go into foreclosure, but that has nothing to do with the tenant. Until there is a foreclosue sale, the tenant is obligated to pay rent to the owner.
That's known as a security deposit, which is returned to the tenant after they vacate the premises, provided there are no damages.
The Landlord
Consult the MISSISSIPPI CODE TITLE 89. REAL AND PERSONAL PROPERTY CHAPTER 8. RESIDENTIAL LANDLORD AND TENANT ACT. This will highlight your tenant rights in MS.
It depends on your contract, but it is a very common courtesy that if you are renting form him he should provide. though if you are not home expect that the landlord will enter.
No. If the property is about to be foreclosed, the landlord has no obligation to give the tenant any notice of anything. After the foreclosure, the landlord will have nothing to do with the tenant.
Create an agreement between you, the Landlord, and the tenant. Specify your rules for renting him the property (the rules may not be unconscionable, such as to violate the laws or to allow the Landlord into the home without notice), and the consequences of violating the terms of the lease. Seek legal advice if necessary.
