Can you sell an apartment if it is rented?
More and more owners who have rented apartments are making the decision to sell their apartment even if it is rented. This is due to the high demand for purchases at the moment and the owners of tenant apartments do not want to be left out. But, can an owner sell if he has rented the apartment? Yes, an owner has every right to sell his apartment with a tenant. Now we will explain what this transaction implies for both the tenant and the owner.
1- The apartment is rented, can I still sell it?
Yes, a rented apartment can be sold without any problem. Of course, it is advisable to notify the tenant of the sale of the apartment so that the tenant is aware of the situation and can know what to do.
The owner must tell the tenant that the apartment is for sale, or he can do it verbally or in writing, it is best to notify the tenant in writing that the apartment will be put up for sale and indicate the sale price and any other information that is relevant.
2- If I have a tenant, does he have a preference to buy the apartment?
Yes, the tenant has preference when buying, that is why it is important to indicate the purchase price when it is reported that the apartment is for sale. The tenant may buy the apartment as long as he accepts the conditions set by the seller. Of course, if the tenant at the time of signing the rental contract waives the preferential right of purchase, in this case he will not be able to have preference.
In the event that the tenant does not want to buy, the owner must inform potential buyers that the apartment is rented and that there is a valid contract. The buyer must respect the rental contract until it ends and must provide all the necessary information.
3- If I sell the apartment with a tenant, can I make visits?
The tenant is not obliged to show the apartment if he does not wish and the landlord cannot force the tenant. The decision to show the apartment falls on the good will of the tenant. The best thing to do is to facilitate the process for both the new owner and the future owner in order to maintain a good relationship, especially if the tenant wishes to continue living in the apartment.
