Portland Tenant law question
I recently closed on my first triplex in Gresham OR. All three units are on month to month leases and I decided which one I was going to move into. Before closing I asked the seller to give the tenant a 60 day no-cause eviction so that I could move in within my 60 day window of closing (fha financing). He agreed and mailed the document which I have a copy of. Now the tenant seems to think that because the property changed hands that the 60 day he was given before is not valid. I cant find anything in the tenant laws about this kind of situation. Does anyone here know if I need to do anything in addition to what has already been done by the previous landlord? I know now that I could have given him a 30 day after we closed but since he already got the 60 day I didn't bother. Should I give him a 30 day tomorrow? Or do I have grounds to have him out by the 30th of this month via the previous notice?
He also seems to think that he is due 3 months rent for being forced out of his residence (completely not true). All of this is pretty confusing and I do not know if I am missing something or he is just trying to scam me for more money/stay longer.
Thanks for all your help in advance.
