CURRENT LEASE – A current lease is not normally impacted by a sale. It must be honored by the Buyer.
A Buyer and Tenant can agree to a new lease but the Buyer cannot force the Tenant to sign a new lease.
No addendum is needed showing the new owner but there is no harm in notification.
SECURITY DEPOSIT/LAST MONTH RENT – Funds held by the Seller or the Property Manager (unless Property Manager is retained by Buyer) must be transferred to the Buyer’s Florida bank account.
PROPERTY MANAGER RETAINED– Nothing changes. The current lease is not impacted. Property Manager can offer a new lease if Buyer wishes and Tenant can sign if Tenant agrees. Property Manager should notify Tenant of new Buyer’s name.
PROPERTY MANAGER TERMINATED - The Property Manager should notify the Tenant that they are no longer managing and that Tenant funds were transferred. The Buyer should notify the Tenant that they are the new owner, where rent should be sent, contact info etc.
