Duplex under contract. Inheriting Tenant Question
Hello everyone, I am currently under contract with my second duplex and will be inheriting a tenant with this property. I am told that the tenant is up to date on rent and is currently month to month. Looking for advise as to how I should go about confirming this as well what steps we should take in order to make this process go smoothly. Thanks in advance for your help!

@Jeremy Nault I had to deal with inherited tenants. Since they are Month to Month I would write in addendums that you might want to add (with 30 days notice of course). I would ask for verification on the payments made hopefully the previous owner was using a service like cozy or rentReady that will easily show you.
