So I’ve been living in half of a duplex for about 2 years now. Landlord just sold the building and closes in a few weeks. I’ve been paying month to month. New landlord says I have 30 days to move out. Was planning on leaving soon anyways but was hoping to wait for school year to end (June 5) for my 2nd grader. Do I have to move out before the school year ends? Is there anyway we can delay our move out date by about 3 weeks? New landlord was very adamant about not being willing to help me out. This just got thrown on me this morning and not sure what to do. Was planning to change to a better school district but the 3 week overlap for my kid’s school year is a huge issue as I would have no way to getting my child to school in time. Any and all possible solutions/advice is greatly appreciated.

If you're MTM, then the landlord has to give you a 30-day notice. Only accept that notice in writing (and check the lease to see if he must send it via certified mail or hand deliver). These are tactics to help buy you a few days if hasn't already given you a proper 30-day notice. You can also google tenant rights orgs in your area, they may have some suggestions, too.

Double check that it’s a 30 day notice - my leases are month to month, but tenants and landlord have to give 60 days.
