Once a life tenant releases their life estate they have no rights in the property and no responsibilities regarding the property. It is up to the fee owner to determine the terms for the continued use of the property. The owner may serve notice for the former life tenant to vacate the premises or the owner can require the tenant to sign a lease and pay rent. It is up to the owner.
