Tenant Rights During Sale
Summary
In Nova Scotia, landlords can sell rented properties, but tenants rights are protected under the Residential Tenancies Act. Tenants cannot be evicted solely due to a sale. For month-to-month leases, landlords must provide at least 3 months written notice to end the tenancy. Valid eviction reasons include the new owner moving in or extensive renovations. Tenants can dispute improper evictions with the Nova Scotia Residential Tenancies Board.Full Conversation
