Notice to sell the property
As reported in the newspaper Le Figaro, a tenant has just been ordered by the courts to pay his landlord €10,000 in damages, because he refused access to the property for viewings, even though it was up for sale. In the court's view, the notice to sell had been sent to him in due and proper form. The legal framework must be respected, because if the sale of an unfurnished rental property results in the lease being terminated, the tenant has a 'right of first refusal' to buy the property from other buyers. The notice given to the tenant must specify the price and conditions of the sale. The offer made to the tenant is valid for the first two months of the notice period. After this period, the landlord may offer the property to another person. If the property is put up for sale, the tenancy agreement may contain a clause giving the landlord the right to visit the property on terms to be agreed with the tenant.
