Landlord just decided she wants sell the apartment 25 DAYS after final lease was signed!!! 😡😭🫨

Trying to decide if it's time to learn about the tenant protection laws here in Norway and dispute it or just move out and move on. 🇳🇴🏡

The frustrating part is that I don't have enough time to wrangle a home purchase, so I'd bet stuck renting again and I am VERY tired of moving!

On the bright side, getting 3 days off for easter was lovely. 🐣

@sommer Oh no! No minimum 1 year lease there? That must be incredibly stressful. :( Hope you can sort it out quickly! 🤞

@arroz so there's a minimum binding period for long term leases, but this was a fixed term 1 year lease which didn't seem to have one. BUT from what I'm reading courts may consider this unreasonable... which is why I'm trying to decide what's harder...getting legal in a new country or finding another apartment in a new country...

@sommer Doesn’t the new owner have to honor that 1 year term? Here it usually works like that, if you buy a rented apartment you’re also buying the lease and have to honor it. But no idea in Norway. 😟 Probably finding a new apartment is the easier option but I’m used to a country (Portugal) where the legal system is a joke. I’m hoping it’s better in Norway.

@arroz form what I'm reading that would be an option (selling it with me in it) BUT she can give me 3 months notice which she did... so yeah - to your point - it's complicated and I'm not sure how well the whole system works here... so ... lots of figure out!

@sommer Yeah I would be incredibly stressed right now if that happened to me so soon after moving. Hoping you can find a nice place soon!
