Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in West Virginia
lease terms
I have a lease agreement that had an initial term of 13 years. At the end of that lease I had four Five year options that I needed to notify the lessor of 180 days before the initial term ended. I forgot due to the lenghtly initial term and notified them 120 days before the initial term ended. The lessor recieved my letter and check inidicating I wanted to take an option term, did not cash my check but did not communicate with me until the end of the initial term date. My agreement holds that if either party has any problem with the other we both have ten days to communicate. The lessor now wants to cancel my option years and only go year to year, but I want to keep my options. My question is because they did not communicate with me can I keep my original agreement? or do I have to accept the year to year?

Re: lease terms
This sounds like a commercial lease situation, so parties on both sides will be held to their contract terms in most instances. Call or email for assistance. I have been a Landlord for over 25 years.
