Asked by
I bought a unit with tenancy that ends late next year. Completion date on contract is in Q1 2022. I have been trying to ask seller and his agent to ask tenant if he is willing to accept early termination with completion but they are unwilling to ask or provide me contact of tenant. I am told to check only after completion but this will delay my move into the unit. Is there anything i can do about this?

You have entered into an agreement to purchase the property with tenancy until late next year, therefore do be prepared that the tenant intend to see out the remaining of the contract. There is also no obligation on the seller and agent to assist you in such arrangement to check and they are not wrong to indicate that you can check after the completion of the property. If in doubt, you should check with your conveyancing lawyer to find out what are the rights you can exercise in this situation. In a private property resale transaction, the agent will typically not be involved in any changes to the agreement terms and will leave it for both seller's and purchaser's lawyer to communicate.
