My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: South Carolina
My wife has been a resident property manager for sixteen years. Two years prior to her becoming the property manager, we became residents and have lived on this property ever sense. I, am the principal on the lease. Recently, the property was taken over my a management company from another state. She was told that because of her stellar record on this property, that she was being maintained by this company, given a raise, and asked to sign an addendum to our lease. In the body of this lease, is a paragraph stating that if she is terminated, that the management company can require her to vacate. It is important to note that as part of her new agreement, the apartment that we have occupied, will be provided at n/c. The addendum is printed with my name and her name written in. She signed the addendum and I did not. The addendum is made out to both of our names and only one of us signed it. Now, she has been terminated without cause, and they are dmeanding that we sign a new lease on a mon-to-month basis, or they will evict us. I am the principal, I did not sign the addendum, I consider this to be an illegal document. Help us.
