Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Oklahoma
Last Months Rent
We sold a rental property. The tenants are behind in their rent to us. The realtor says we must turn over the last month rent to the new owner. Is this a law? What about their past due rent?

Re: Last Months Rent
Typically, the owner of property is entitled to any rent which accrued during the time of their ownership. The sale contract will control your specific situation.
