Hello:
I have a major problem. And I hope someone can help me. I live in New Jersey. I have a closing on my house I'm selling... set for 8/15/08. It's a 2 family house, I do not occupy any of the apartments. My tenants were month to month. I sent them the legal 30 day notice to vacate the premises due to the sell of the house, because the new owner wants it empty upon receipt. However one tenant decided to stay for another month. My question is about this tenant being legally deemed a holdover tenancy now, and if so... does anyone know what the holdover tenancy penalty is for the State of New Jersey, because there is no penalty clause for a holdover tenancy in my lease.
PLEASE HELP ME ASAP
Jim
