You need to seek advice from your local landlord/tenant agency. They can review your situation and explain your options. If that's not possible then you should try the local bar association or contact an attorney who specializes in landlord/tenant issues. Check city, town, county and state listings in your phone book.
You need to come into agreement with the current tenant as well as the landlord. If the landlord approves, you will sign an agreement to take over the lease from the current tenant.
This would depend upon the terms of the lease, but generally depend on why the landlord wants to terminate the lease. If the tenant violated the terms of the lease then the landlord can terminate the lease after proper warning or after proper notice is given. Otherwise the landlord has to wait until the lease expires and can choose not to renew.
Prior to having the tenant sign, the landlord would insert the sentence into the lease, "The landlord reserves the right to terminate this lease with ninety days notice." Tenant may request the same terms, or take the tenancy as offered.
Once a lease is mutually agreed upon (signed by both sides) it generally must be honored. But if the landlord asked the potential new tenant if he has a criminal record, that tenant denies such, and it is found out later that he has one, yes: the landlord can terminate the lease for fraud.
Generally speaking, no. A landlord can only terminate a lease if the tenant violates the terms of it.
No, just signed by the Landlord and Tenant.
No, just signed by the Landlord and Tenant.
Did a court adjudicate the tenant as incompetent? Then, if and when the landlord sues, that would provide the basis for a defense. You can't stop the landlord from trying to recover damages.
Sure, if the tenant caused it.
A person can obtain a commercial lease agreement by asking their landlord to create one. After this is done, a commercial lease between the tenant and the landlord will be made.
This should have been disclosed when the landlord performed the background check, before the lease was signed. Well, if the landlord had an application for an apartment to which the tenant denied having been evicted if there were questions that asked such, then the landlord can terminate the lease for the tenant having falsified the information given.
Normally the landlord must give at least a 30-day notice before the expiration of the lease that he will not renew it, so the tenant must leave. There is one exception: if the tenant is in violation of the terms of the lease, the landlord may terminate the lease and give such short notice for the tenant to leave.
