2015 Code of Alabama
Title 35 - PROPERTY.
Chapter 8A - ALABAMA UNIFORM CONDOMINIUM ACT.
Article 4 - Protection of Condominium Purchasers.
Section 35-8A-412 - Conversion buildings.
(a) A declarant of a condominium containing conversion buildings, and any person in the business of selling real estate for his own account who intends to offer units in such a condominium shall give each of the residential tenants and any residential subtenant in possession of a portion of a conversion building notice of the conversion no later than 60 days before the tenants and any subtenant in possession are required to vacate. The notice must set forth generally the rights of tenants and subtenants under this section and shall be hand-delivered to the unit or mailed by prepaid United States mail to the tenant and subtenant at the address of the unit or any other mailing address provided by a tenant. No tenant or subtenant may be required to vacate upon less than 60 days' notice, except by reason of nonpayment of rent, waste, or conduct that disturbs other tenants' peaceful enjoyment of the premises, and the terms of the tenancy may not be altered during that period. Failure to give notice as required by this section is a defense to an action for possession.
(b) If a notice of conversion specifies a date by which a unit or proposed unit must be vacated, and otherwise complies with the provisions of section 35-9-80, the notice also constitutes a notice to terminate specified by that statute.
(c) Nothing in this section permits termination of a lease by a declarant in violation of the terms of the lease.
