Your old lease was legally valid through its expiration, even with a new owner, but it seems like that lease has since expired...really you dont have a valid lease to make a claim on, and neither does your landlord...if you are uncomfortable with that, find a new place. |

Don't worry about it. In most states you are covered by your original lease. I hope you have it. |

depending upon the jurisdiction ( state law probably) you are what is called a tenant at sufferance. this is similar to a month to month agreement, which usually need not be in writing to be effective and binding. It does affect the proof that may be required if you want to fight an eviction (Are you being evicted? if not, do not worry) Check the laws of your state.
keep good record of every payment. use checks and keep the cancelled checks in case you ever need them to prove he has consented to your rental by acquiescence and by accepting your payments. Oral agreements are perfectly legal too, but some states require a lease of a year or more be in writing. Any month to month agreement does not usually require a written contract.
Save the old lease too. I assume it has expired but it still has some evidence value. It shows you are in the premises legally from the start. The new owner takes title subject to any rights of the tenant (you) so do not worry too much about the lack of a paper. You have possession which is 9/10ths of the law.
BEWARE: Be sure to respond immediately to any written notices , especially eviction. or you may lose your rights by sitting on them.
Stop pestering the landlord and let him forget about you. if you bother him too much he may raise the rent or give you a 30 day notice to get out for no particular reason. ( he can do that)
Pay the rent on time and shut up. you are entitled to quet enjoyment of the premises, so be quiet.( ha ha) |

Consider yourself lucky. Are you paying the same rent that you paid in 2000? Have you had any rent increases since the building changed hands. If so, you have been grandfathered into an annual lease. If not, consider yourself lucky and keep paying the rent. |

i doubt it matters. the new owners had to honor your current lease on the property when they purchased it from the old owner. when does the lease expire? that is what you should worry about--renewing it! if you have sent the rent money to the new owner, and they accepted/cashed your check/cash, then this is attornement--it means you both acknowldege that you are renting to/from each other since the owner has changed. the original lease should still be binding, but perhaps you should seek legal advice! |

Why are you complaining? Having no lease and living in an appartment would be the greatest thing ever!! Hmmm...dont pay your rent for a couple months. You cant be held liable because you dont have a lease...plus, if you really do want one (which I have no clue why.) this is a good way to get it. lol Good luck. |

Check with your local Housing Authority and see what they tell you. |

what kind of rental agreement did you have with the previous owner? Hopefully he has the original documents. Are you ready to move or trying to resign a lease. Just simply tell the owner your situation and if he doesn't want to help you report him to better business bureau maybe even consult a lawyer. You have rights as a tenant. best wishes |
