AI summary
Selling a tenanted property in NZ requires clear communication and respecting tenant rights. Landlords must notify tenants and can either sell vacant or tenanted.
If selling tenanted, the new owner inherits the tenancy agreement. For periodic tenancies, landlords must give 90 days' notice to end it. Fixed-term tenancies cannot be ended early without mutual agreement. Tenants can't unreasonably deny viewing access but can set conditions, like refusing open homes and requiring appointments.
