Re: House sold 3 days to move
Is there a written lease?. A single lodger in a private room is entitled to the same amount of notice as the days between rent being due. If you pay monthly, 30 days notice is required. You cannot be evicted in 4 days. Good luck.

The law requires 30 days WRITTEN NOTICE. If he wants you out then he needs to negotiate a settlement with you. Contact me directrly.
