Definition and Examples
- Definition
- A holdover tenant is an individual who remains in a rented property after the expiration of their lease or rental agreement. In such cases, the tenant continues to occupy the property without formal authorization or a renewed agreement with the landlord. Holdover tenancy situations often lead to legal actions, such as eviction proceedings, as the landlord seeks to regain possession of the property.
