I have rented the same property for 3.5 years. For two years I had a lease and let it lapse. I also signed a waiver of notice to quit in the first lease but not in the second. Last month's rent was paid up front with the security deposit at the time of taking possession.
Landlord advised me he wanted to sell the house and offered it to me to buy. Within one week, I told him I would not be buying the house. At the first of the month, we agreed I would vacate within 45 days. I told him I would be out in 30 as they were in a hurry to rehab the property for sale and 45 days would be mid-month, not a good time to begin a new lease.
Immediately the landlord began extensive work on the property without asking, bringing in workers and working 12 to 13 hours a day on the property, putting on a new roof, concrete work, removing trees, pressure washing, etc. None of these things were necessary repairs and I asked landlord to scale back as I had no peace from sunup to sundown. Now he wants to come inside to begin work, painting and putting on new doors. I have 10 days left here and do not want him here at all. Can I call the police and have him removed? I can't even have a cookout for memorial day because he insists on working.
