The owner of a California house refused to leave for 15 months after selling it for cash, protected by California's "no eviction during pandemic" laws.

I don't think I understand how this could happen. The seller is not a tenant. He's got his money. How does tenant law apply here? What rights does he have? And isn't an agreement to vacate by a specific date part of the sales contract, if the house isn't already vacant? Wouldn't this be a breach of contract, subject to damages? Could the buyers have charged this guy rent, like maybe $50 grand a month?
I guess the lesson is "Don't buy an occupied house."

Myles and Tracie Albert, purchased their Riverside, California home in cash in January 2020 for $650,000 just before the coronavirus pandemic, as CBSLA reported. However, after they bought the four-bedroom home, the seller would not leave. |
