Answer:

Generally, the terms of a lease contract will govern the agreement as long as they don't violate local law. I suggest trying to negotiate a compromise.

FAQs

If a tenant remains in the property after the lease expires, they may be considered a holdover tenant. The landlord can choose to either accept rent and continue the tenancy on a month-to-month basis or initiate eviction proceedings. However, the tenant may still be responsible for rent during this period, especially if they did not provide the required notice to vacate.
