Stop spreading fake news, if the owner wants you out and gives you proper notice you’re out.

The only way an owner can give a notice that's legally "proper" is if the end of lease is coming up anyway and they're informing you that they won't be renewing with you. Otherwise they have to go through eviction proceedings because being under a lease protects the tenant from being removed any other way.

I don’t think you can generalize on leases as each one is negotiated between a different landlord and tenant. There are clauses that can be added that protect the landlord. There is no “only way”

this is not exactly true. VRLTA governs in residential leases, clauses that contradict it are void.

This is true, but only leases that are for a full year. A 364 day lease is not subject to the LTA from what I have been told. This is a sneaky trick used by some slumlords. So, when signing a lease, you should read and understand the entire lease.

that used to be the case. I don't think it is anymore, but it's a good question, I'll read up on it. They basically made it applicable to everyone the last few years...

Yeah, looks like 90 days is the cutoff now

§ 55.1-1201. Applicability of chapter; local authority

Thank you for the info. The laws are changing now every year, and it is hard to keep up.

Come lease a property from me and test your knowledge out.

ok? what will that prove? I'm sure everything will be done by the law as demon realm stated. or are you implying that you will be intentionally breaking the law to prove a point?

Thank you for self identifying yourself as a slumlord that is apart of the problem in Richmond.

No you can not threaten tenants and you will be charged with harassment or assault if you do.

No you can not “test our knowledge out” or we will sue you civilly or bring criminal charges.

No you can not illegally use any means just because you own a property and want a tenant out.

Please test us. I have legal teams standing by and already retained for tenants just for individuals such as yourself.
