I don't even know where to start I'm between angered and surprised. Anyways this morning while I was doing my laundry I got a knock at the door. I answer to find my land lord telling me someone was going to be "Looking" at the house. At first I was shocked by what he said and then someone from behind him makes an appearance that I recognized. It was Meat Shop Owner/ Butcher that I always by my meat from. His was taken a back when he saw me in plain sight and said something like "I'm sorry I can't do this I have to go" to my land lord and the next minuet my land lord steps out of the house and walks off towards the butcher. I watch from the window as they argue but the were so far I couldn't make out what they were saying. So they both get in each of their cars and drive off. Later that evening I went to butcher shop to get some answers so I decided to buy some lean ground beef to make it look like I was shopping rather then investigating. The moment I walked in and the owner saw my face he apologized profusely saying "I had no idea you lived there I swear I'm not gonna buy it, I respect you and you are like a son to me" I was shocked by the word 'Buy'. Apparently he elaborated and my land lord is selling the property I live on. He gave me no notice, he didn't tell his real-estate agent to for warn me about the house going on the market. This sneaky son of bitch was going sell this house and give me a 60 day notice get the fuck out. I want to literally curb stomp this mother fucker. I have had to put up with a lot shit with this land lord becuase he takes years to fix things. For example the on January 2010 I told him replace the bottom piping in the of kitchen sink because they are so rusted that when I do the dishes water leaks all over the floor from under the sink and I have to mop it all up every time. It took him to send someone out until September 2010 after more then several calls. In the mean time I was forced to use the bathroom sink to clean the dishes. The stoves coils shot out (1995 model stove), the tumble dryers turbine broke (1992 dryer) fridge engine blew (1997 ridge). The list goes on and I waited 5 years for all these to be replaced. I have no choice at this point but to move. I can't take it anymore I don't want to go jail for going ape shit on this guy but I don't want to be taken for chump any longer. I'm just pissed that this sneaky bastard would go behind my back and does this. Anyways excuse my language but today has been biggest WTF of 2011 for me.

I think they have to give you 90 days notice if they sell the dwelling. Also they have to pay you to leave early. So if he wanted you out, he'd have to pay you out, and is on the hook for certain inconvenience expenses. But it doesn't sound like he would do that willingly. I would make a list of ALL the things wrong, go to the rental board and refuse to pay rent until it's brought up to proper standard. Then use the rent free time to find a new place.
