Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Michigan

notice of sale

I know I need to give my tenant a 30 notice to put the house up for sale, but does that actually mean I cannot put a sign up or even show the house before that 30 days? And when I give her that notice, does it have to be in writing, or can it be verbal? If it is in writing, do I send it certified, or can I just hand it to her? I live directly across the road.

Re: notice of sale

It means just what it says-you cannot put up the house for sale for 30 days. As far as the notice goes, it would depend on the language in the lease you have with your tenant that would dictate how you give notice. If the agreement is silent on that subject it is most prudent to send it in writing and get a return receipt.
