Sell Your Tired Landlord House Fast in Henrico

Virginia landlord-tenant law is governed primarily by the Virginia Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (VRLTA), codified at Virginia Code §§ 55.1-1200 through 55.1-1262, and landlords selling a rental property must understand that an existing lease survives the sale — meaning the buyer steps into your shoes as the new landlord and the tenant's lease terms remain fully enforceable. If a tenant is on a month-to-month agreement, Virginia law (§ 55.1-1253) requires a minimum 30-day written notice to terminate tenancy, though many standard leases require more. Virginia has no statewide rent control law and no just-cause eviction requirement, so once a fixed-term lease expires or proper notice is given on a month-to-month tenancy, you are not obligated to justify non-renewal — but you must follow the statutory process through General District Court if the tenant refuses to vacate, which typically adds 30 to 60 days to the timeline depending on the jurisdiction's docket. Tenants also have a right of first refusal only if your lease specifically grants it — Virginia statute does not impose one — so most sales to a cash buyer can proceed without offering the tenant an opportunity to purchase.
