You have to see off your rent before packing out. Don't mind that man, so far the property wasn't sold to another person.
The shop is at sokoto road inside maim market.

If you cannot handle your landlord contact me i am in onitsha I will help you out.

123readygo:
Please don't mind those quasi/half backed lawyers up there. No one can evict you before the expiration of your rent. Just go to court on the day of hearing and present your rent receipt before the court.
Contact your lawyer or you can reach me if you don't have one...

1. You act is dubious as well, why would you turn junior landlord in someone's else property? That's the behavior of some of your people here in Lagos. After renting a shop, they will keep it and give it to another person at another alarming price.

2. This act is particularly common among the ibos in the name of "it is business". It's one of the reasons many shops are expensive in Lagos Market Today.

3. Imagine act like bring 2.5m, let me sell the shop to you so that you can start paying the landlord the exact figure directly. Does that make any sense to you people?

4. You are the reason the landlord increase the tenancy fee and there is nothing you can do about it.

5. When you don't need the shop, why did you rent it?

6. If you want to earn from properties, build yours.

7. Landlord gave you 8k per month, I am sure the landlord had been told everything you collected from the tenant of yours before taking the money to 13k.

chukwugoziegi:
I agree. He is probably one of those Troublemaking tenants who do not respect their Landlords. If this one rent house from a woman, he fit beat am one day when she asks for her money.

But the landlord too get him wahala sha. Seems to be a greedy pig. 2years rent.

Dear Landlords on this Forum, thatAgreement form is very important! Always list your dos and don'ts please and have them go through it before they even pay their rent.

chukwugoziegi:
Subletting your shop to another person was totally wrong. If you signed any form of agreement with him not to do so, trust me if he takes that agreement to court, you'll be in soup.

As for the quit notice thing, you can only move when you rent expires, if you move before then, he'll have to refund your balance to you.

Both of you are at fault tbh.

And I really don't know why Landlords collect 2years rent. 1 year is enough. That 2 years just dey long and unnecessary.

tonyson010:
That is bullying because no reason for the quit notice. There is an issue between the two which the OP is not revealing.
The guy is also stubborn. He just squeezed the letter and dumbed it somewhere. Probably based on advice he decided to retrieve it.

You rented a shop but you are not using it then you rented the same shop ro another person. You are renting another person's house to somebody else? Did you follow him to build the house Oga?
Did you discuss with the landlord before renting the house to somebody else? If "no" is your answer to the above questions, he has every right to give you quit notice.

Comedian2019:
Did you sign an agreement? Was there a clause empowering the property owner to increase rent or change terms before your payment expires?
If there's no such clause, then the eviction notice is trash. Until your rent expires, only the court can evict you.
Eviction notice can be challenged in the court. So, call your lawyer.

We didn't sign any agreement sir.

CaptainFM1:
There's a caveat in the notice Sir. "If he cannot pay the new rent after the expiration of his tenancy". Meaning he's allowed to stay till 2023. But the truth here is that he has angered the Landlord by subletting his house. He has no right to do so. What is troubling him now is how he will put the new incriment forward to his baby tenant that just moved in.

backbencher:
Where to start

1. You rented shop and you were not using it

2. You then turned to junior landlord and rented out the same shop that you were renting

3. No wonder the landlord chased you out

4. Anyway, did you sign a written rental agreement with the landlord?
Did the agreement allow you to do what you have been doing IE rent out the shop that you are renting?
If it didn't,no wonder.
Also did the agreement state that the landlord could adjust the terms of the agreement if ' situations changed'?

FuckDModz:
Ogbeni if you can't pay, collect your change and move on.

Any other option will still cost you more.

This is Nigeria.
