[RPPTL LandTen] Acceptance of Rent After Lease Expires - Residential

Fri Dec 13 10:03:42 PST 2013

Although in Part I, Non-Residential, why would this same reasoning not apply  to residential?

83.04 Holding over after term, tenancy at sufferance, etc.—When any tenancy created by an instrument in writing, the term of which is limited, has expired and the tenant holds over in the possession of said premises without renewing the lease by some further instrument in writing then such holding over shall be construed to be a tenancy at sufferance. The mere payment or acceptance of rent shall not be construed to be a renewal of the term, but if the holding over be continued with the written consent of the lessor then the tenancy shall become a tenancy at will under the provisions of this law.

Daniel:  What does the lease say about this?  Some leases will say that if the tenant does not notify landlord that it intends to renew lease within ___ days of the expiration date, the tenancy becomes month-to-month after expiration.

Written lease expires 11/30/13.  Tenant failed to vacate.  Monthly rent is $10K.  Must be a nice house. Tenant then tendered the December rent of $10K to Landlord.  After tender, Landlord filed suit for eviction. Then Landlord cashed the $10K.   Was a month to month lease created here which would be a defense to the eviction? 

Would the scenario be different if tenant tendered the $10K after the eviction was filed and landlord accepted it? 

I’m trying to figure out when month to months are established after leases expire.  It seems like a landlord should be entitled to rent while the tenant remains without necessarily creating a month to month lease. I am familiar with 83.58.
