    Think ahead for your leases!

    Case by case basis, really. I cannot force a tenant to sign a lease, so it is possible that a tenant on a periodic lease can vacate at anytime giving appropriate notice. You can issue a notice to vacate, but depending on the tenants, expect that to be thrown out at VCAT. Ideally, all...
