Currently Occupied TriPlex - Lease Switch?
Hello everyone! I'm currently in the due diligence period of closing on my first rental property. It's a tri-plex with 2 of the units currently occupied. I will live in the 3rd unit.
I'm located in the greater Cincinnati, Ohio area.
What do I need to make sure of in regards to the lease as I transition into self managing/owning the property?
Will I need an attorney to switch the lease into my name? What is the right way to do this so that the contract is with me and not the previous owners?
I realize the lease goes with the property, so I can't just have them sign a new lease all together. However, I feel like the lease should have me as the leassor. Perhaps I'm mistaken?
Thanks!
