What do you do if you get an eviction notice? Do you need to move if your landlord sells your place?

There is a wide range of reasons a tenant can be evicted and each type of eviction has its own legal process. Unraveling what information you need to know can be difficult.

That is why we made this guide to help you understand your rights, how to fight evictions and how to access online resources.

All these resources are great, but if you're looking for a quick and easy way to digest all this information, we made a video series breaking down all the important information and the main steps of three common eviction scenarions.
