Sell Your Tired Landlord House Fast in Ashburn

South Carolina's landlord-tenant relationship is governed primarily by the South Carolina Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (S.C. Code Ann. §§ 27-40-10 through 27-40-940), which gives tenants meaningful protections even when a property sells mid-lease. When a landlord sells a rental home, the new owner steps into the existing lease agreement and must honor its remaining term — a tenant with six months left on a fixed lease cannot be removed simply because the property changed hands. South Carolina has no statewide rent control and no just-cause eviction requirement, so once a lease expires or a month-to-month tenancy is in place, the landlord can terminate with a written 30-day notice under § 27-40-770; holdover tenants who refuse to leave face eviction proceedings filed in the local Magistrate Court, which handles residential evictions statewide and typically schedules a hearing within 10 to 14 days of the tenant being served. There is no state law requiring a landlord to notify a tenant a set number of days before closing escrow purely because of the sale itself, but best practice — and the requirement to provide a new owner's contact information under § 27-40-420 — means tenants must receive written notice of the ownership change promptly after closing.
