We dive deep into the complex legal relationships between landlords and tenants, focusing on what happens when either party sells or assigns their interest to someone else.
⢠Visual representation of landlord-tenant relationships using an "L" shape helps understand the legal connections
⢠Privity of contract remains between original landlord and tenant regardless of assignments
⢠Privity of estate forms between current property holders (new landlord and new tenant)
⢠Only covenants that "touch and concern" the land will bind new parties
⢠Examples of binding covenants include repairs, building permissions, insurance, and use restrictions
⢠Personal covenants (like washing someone's car) won't transfer to new parties
⢠Original tenant remains liable for the full lease duration even after assignment
⢠Indemnity chains protect parties when multiple assignments occur
⢠When landlord changes, tenant can sue either original or current landlord for breaches
⢠Original landlord loses enforcement rights after selling, despite privity of contract
