<html><body><span style="font-family:Verdana; color:#000000; font-size:12pt;"><div>Hello,</div><div><br></div><div>Tenant (T) is month to month in a duplex in City of Seattle, and has been so for many years. Landlord (L) sells duplex to Developer (D) to be demolished and replaced with a quad of Pez-Dispenser shaped houses. L appears to continue to act as D's agent after sale, continues to accept rent payments due first of each month, last paid and accepted 12/1/15.</div><div><br></div><div>D provided 90-day notice to T pursuant to Tenant Relocation requirements. Notice indicated building was to be demolished, advised of application process for relocation benefits, etc., but made clear it was not a notice to end tenancy or evict. Notice was received mid-August 2015.</div><div><br></div><div>Other tenants in the duplex have vacated. T is preparing to relocate. T has contacted L and D to determine their schedule for ending tenancy, eviction, or demolition. L and D have not been responsive. T is understandably anxious.</div><div><br></div><div>Questions are: How much notice must L (or D) give T to end tenancy or evict? Can L give only 20 days notice, or is more required? If T gives, say, 60 days notice to L and L accepts, can L still end tenancy sooner?</div><div><br></div><div>T is hoping to extend tenancy at least through January to relocate. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>David Vaughan<br></div></span></body></html>
