We talk through the lease, who lives in the house, access, repairs, and what you hope happens with the tenancy.

New York leases, notice, and security deposits
An ordinary sale generally leaves the existing lease and tenant protections in place. A tenant does not have to move just because the house sells, and the buyer becomes the landlord. Read the New York Attorney General’s Residential Tenants’ Rights Guide.
If a tenancy can lawfully end, New York may require 30, 60, or 90 days’ advance notice, depending on how long the tenant has lived there and the lease term. Good Cause Eviction and rent regulation can also limit nonrenewal. See New York Real Property Law §226-c.
When a New York rental is sold, the security deposit must be transferred to the new owner within five days or returned to the tenant, with the notice the law requires. See New York General Obligations Law §7-105.
