I have been renting a garage/apt for 18 months. I recently discovered that the gentleman I believed to be the homeowner (my landlord) is a tenant. He also rents out 3 other rooms in the home. The actual homeowner showed up with the city and my garage/apt has been deemed uninhabitable... an illegal dwelling. The homeowner served his tenant (my landlord) with a 3 day Notice to Perform Conditions And Covenants or Quit. Reason listed shows violation of lease terms by subletting portions of the home and garage. The form only names my landlord and all others in possession.
My question is this... Are myself and the other tenants expected to be out in # days... Our rents have been paid...We had no idea that the man to whom we were paying our rent was not the homeowner. The gentleman on the lease is packing as we speak, tells us he is going to have utilities cut and locks changed on the first. Can he do that? He took our rent, doesn't that entitle us to at least 3o days notice..None of us is in a financial position to move in 3 days.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated
