Month to Month
This question is actually for a neighbor of mine. During Hurricane Ike they recv’d a note stating that they had to move out by the 26th when they already paid rent for the whole month. There was no notice given to them and they weren’t prepared to move. They were told they were to give a 90 day notice to the Landlord if they were going to move and they hadn’t done that because they were wanting to stay…plus we were hit by Hurricane Ike, so moving would be impossible right now. They didn’t give them any notice at all. Can they do that, just evict them like that on a Month to Month and tell them that they have to move out at a certain date without notice? I mean these people just went through a hurricane, they are family of five with three kids all under the age of ten. It just doesn’t seem right or fair that they would do that to them. The note was posted to their door on the 17th of September, just after Ike hit the Houston area, they were without power for 6 days and expected to move out by today. That gave them no time to pack and no time to look for a place to live since Hotels are full around here and no one seems to be renting, just repairing.
