Removing a tenet on subsudized housing
Hey all!
I am making an offer on a multi-family home that has two units. I want both units delivered vacant as both units are a total mess and need a complete overhaul (new flooring, new bathrooms, kitchen, adding a washer/dryer/ etc). One unit is occupied by someone on Mass Housing and they have a lease lasting until November.
I don't know anything about Mass Housing or subsidized housing laws. Is the process of getting this unit vacant the same as any other standard tenet? Can I simply let them know I do not intend to renew the lease in November, and if they stay it's a standard eviction process the same as a typical tenet?
I just want to make sure I'm not getting myself in a situation that will be a headache as far as inheriting a tenet who I cannot remove.
