Need some advice. I've been leasing a building for over 6 years now. The original lease ran out 3 years ago so we've been going month to month and it's never been a problem. Landlord never asked me to sign a new lease and never even mentioned raising my rent. I've never missed a payment. Landlord calls me up a couple weeks ago and tells me that there's other people interested in our space. I tell him we're still here, still paying, and if he wants to increase our rent then let me know how much. Haven't heard a thing from him until yesterday. He calls me up and says he has a guy coming by today to take a look at my building so he can rent it out to him. Says the guy insists on seeing it. He still hasn't told me what he's looking for in rent from me to stay.
Is it even legal what he's doing? What are my options? It would be extremely difficult to move to another shop right now.
