Hi,
2nd hand, just info from a friend going through a #### scenario.

Bought house, left possession for like 6 months down the road explicitly to allow the tenants to finish their lease before possession.

Less than a month before possession, he finds out the one tenant was never actually notified of termination, and is exercising his right to 3 months notice.

Friend is moving him and his pregnant partner, and her daughter, from two houses into one. Tenant has two large dogs and there is just no way they can live together for a few months with this tenant in the house.

By law, it sounds like any friend is totally ####ed and the realtor he uses didn’t actually get written notice of the tenancy termination.

So...advice? Find somewhere for their family to life for the next three months? Can the realtor not be held accountable somehow? Like, shouldn’t there have been a very specified document that outlines the requirement for the current owner to end tenancy agreements?
