Originally posted by BryanA:nick, there are definitely some influence whores on here...yup, if and when it ever gets fixed, its already too late, over 60k influence points have been given though ya know, full cheese mode has commenced :roll: Anyways......... you can still see who's voting for your posts but it just requires you go back into your recent posts.

If a small, independent mom & pop is pushing for TI, most LL's first fall back position would be to provide some free rent after commencement / opening in lieu of TI. 

My lease states that after the rent demand expires (in your case, it sounds like 3 days), eviction proceeds WILL commence. 

Okay,so for example,under additional terms or conditions,I could write," The buyer of this contract intends to assign his rights to buy the property and the terms of this contract will go into effect, and attorney review will commence, once the assignment has been executed.If the assignment is not executed in 15 days from today,this purchase and sale agreement will become void."

OH Assist: A party desiring to commence an action shall notify the adverse party to leave the premises, for the possession of which the action is about to be brought 3 or more days before beginning the action, by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by handing a written copy of the notice to the defendant in person, or by leaving it at the usual place of abode or at the premises from which the defendant is sought to be evicted.
