I have clauses for this in my leases the problem here is I inherited this tennant when I bought the house less than a year ago and her lease with the previous owner runs through the end of this year. When you buy a building and become the owner you are bound by the existing lease.

The other issue is that if anything ever goes to court in NY it’s really at the judge’s discretion as to what happens. A tennant can violate terms of a lease and if the judge sides with them your F’d as the landlord. Thats why is super critical to pick your tennants carefully.
