Yep. He can do that ;) |

Yes he can do this, so long as he gives you plenty of notice for the people coming round. |
|

Yes he can put it up for sale while it is being rented. However I am pretty sure that he /she is supposed to inform you of people coming to see the property. I mean like that you do not want perspective tenants walking on someone in thier boxers.No you cannot do anything about it ,it's all legal bummer huh? |

1. Yes it can be sold.
2. You may have to make it available for viewing. Check your contract.
3. If there is a sale that does not mean that you will automatically be asked to move or can even be required to move. Check the contract. If the buyer is an investor they may be very happy if you stay.
4. Have you considered buying the property? You might be able to get terms from the seller that make it a good deal. I am not saying that owning is for everyone or that this is the house for you. Just consider all options at this stage. |

I'm not sure if its 24 hours or 48 hours, but a landlord needs to give you notice that someone is coming to the house. People cannot just turn up when they feel like it.
Theres not much you can do about it really except move. |

Yes the landlord can sell his house at anytime he wants..it happened to me a few years back.I rented a house and the next week the landlord put it up for sale and the darn thing sold in a few days..the new owners wanted to take posession right away so i had 12 days to find a new place to live..the landlord was nice enough to give me back my first and last months rent ..i looked into my rights and the only thing that can save you if a lease agreement..because it goes both ways..if you sign a one year lease the lanlord can't make you move for one year..Unless he needs the place for family ..that's the only way he has to get out of the lease..or rent..at anytime a lanlord can ask you to vacate the place if he needs it for family ..it's not fair but laws are laws..have fun and good luck my friend. |

yes they can rent a house and have it on the market at the same time. but there are laws regarding this issue you need to check your states tenants rights handbook. |
|

What sort of lease do you have check this out..... especially the small print.
Read it through if you have rights point these out to your landlord. Decency should prevail here as he ought to give you prior warning of any perspective buyer and at least he ought to arrange a suitable appointment for visit to the property.
Good luck. |

Not sure if its legal but my ex did it a few years ago with no hassle |

This is a typical situation in renting of property. Yes, he can do it and should have advised you at the time.If you have a lease, it no doubt states that at his option, the property can be sold and any renter can either put in an offer or move out.I would not suggest wasting your money on a loosing legal situation, rather begin looking for someplace else more appropraite to you and at a good term and rate. |

yes he can sorry |

You will have to look at your lease. A lot of leases have a clause that states they can put the house on the market while it's being rented. Good luck! |

It depends where you live and the laws. In Ontario a lot of people face that ,since most investment buyers want to see the place rented, it saves them money. With the land lord and tenant act , I'm pretty sure that they have to give you 24 hours written notice before they can drop in. Although if they show up at the door you don't have to let them in,but I know it's hard to stand up for your self ,when it really isn't that big a deal. It's more the principal of the thing and you'd like not to be looked upon as a slob, for you once in a while mess that accumulates. There is the old James Bond way of finding out whether he has been in there without your consent.....put a small pop bottle behind the door as you are leaving. just tuck your arm through a small opening and set it up so he can't see it. If it isn't in the same spot when you get back ,you now know that he is coming in unannounced. If you ever need to take him court take a picture before with the date showing, then take a picture after of the bottle. with the date as well, you may have to take a few pictures in the mornings so you can catch him.lol |

Yeah, as in a different landlord would buy it and rent it out, but they would have to wait until your lease is up........... OR what they could offer is the "Rent to Buy option" |

Yes I think he can - Citizens Advice Bureaux will be more enlightening for you. |

He can sell, but it has to say with sitting tenants if you have a contract with him. That would mean any prospective buyer would buy it knowing that it was occupied. I believe that the new owner cannot just change the rental agreement, but I would advise checking that out with Citizens Advice, which is free by the way! |

Legally, you can refuse to let prospective buyers into the property unless it is written into your rental agreement that you must allow viewing access. |

Do you have a lease? If you do you can refuse to show it unless this was agreed upon in writing. You can also request that he give you a discount on rent for the inconvenience of having people coming through all of the time. |
