How Can a Landlord Evict a Tenant for Personal Use, Sale, or Demolition of the Property?

Eviction for Personal Use: Landlords can legally request the eviction of a tenant if they intend to use the property for themselves or for a first-degree relative. The landlord must follow these steps:

  1. Notification: The tenant must be given an eviction notice through a notary public or registered mail, clearly stating the reason for eviction. The notice must be issued at least 12 months before the desired eviction date.

  2. Proof of Need: The landlord must demonstrate that there is no suitable alternative property available, meaning that even if they own other properties, the one in question is uniquely suited for their intended use.

Eviction for Property Sale: A landlord can also evict a tenant if they plan to sell the property, under the following conditions:

  1. Notification: The tenant must receive an eviction notice through a notary public or registered mail, stating the reason for eviction and the desired eviction date, with at least 12 months' notice.

  2. Proof of Serious Intent: The landlord must prove that the sale is genuine and that there is no other suitable property available for their needs.

Eviction for Demolition and Rebuilding: If the landlord intends to demolish the property and rebuild, they can request tenant eviction, provided:

  1. Licenses: All necessary demolition and rebuilding permits must be obtained from the relevant authorities.

  2. Notification: The tenant must be given a 12-month notice through a notary public or registered mail before the required eviction date.

In all cases, landlords must adhere to legal procedures to ensure a smooth and lawful eviction process.
