It is a term used to tell between the person who entered the let-out property with valid documents and the trespasser who never had the authorization to enter.
Since the occupant does not hold the contract to stay, the owner does not require giving legal notice of termination. Even when the resident is living without a lease, the landholder cannot force them out, and they need to follow the proper regulatory procedure for eviction.
It is used for leased assets used in tenancy reference where the renter stays in possession of the property after the expiration of the lease, or without the approval of the proprietor after the agreement has lawfully ended.
It is the kind of holding by a person who does not want to move out but initially entered through a valid agreement, however, they carry on to remain in it without the assent of the property owner.
Such a condition mostly happens when the resident has been living for a long time and retains control without the approval of the homeowner.
This is considered to be an unlawful act where one can take steps like selling the possession to get an exit or they may offer a new agreement.
Even in case of legal expulsion, it may take more than 6 months to get an outcome but during the process; the dweller must comply with the renter's lease term.
