Notice to Vacate Given During Escrow
Hi all,
As I mention in a previous post (https://www.biggerpockets.com/...) my wife and I are looking to buy a house hack.
I have a question specific to notice to vacate. Let's say I'm under contract on a triplex with all unit full, but one is month-month and I plan to move into that unit. Close of escrow is 30 days. The seller gives the tenant 60 days notice to vacate during escrow period, but we close and transfer ownership in only 30 days. Is the notice to vacate still valid, or would I have to send them a new notice? My understanding is that leases run with the property, not the owner, so I would think the original notice should suffice. But curious if anyone has dealt with this and knows the answer.
Thanks!
David Lyons

Hi @David Lyons, I work with house hackers all the time and that is the textbook procedure on how to do it.
