I cant speak for the person yoh replied to but in NL it's almost impossible to evict someone.


Interesting. Over here, if the owner decides to sell, it is almost impossible to not be evicted.


In general there are renters rights and the lease contract survives a sale. When you buy a property you need to look at contracts in place and whether they are incompatible with your desired use.


As far as I am aware, if you are in an assured shorthold tenancy, as the majority of rented homes are in the UK, your new landlord can serve a court order under section 21 for a no-fault eviction.

On the other hand, if you are renting commercial property for a business and have negotiated a lease, then the lease contract holds.


In this context I was explaining the US system for many or most States. In California for example, a residential lease by statute survives a sale.


The standard form leases in my area allow the landlord to terminate upon conveyance to another party.


I am in California, not at all possible.
