I have a tenant with a verbal lease. I am selling the house. Should I give her 30 or 60 days notice to vacate?

I am a homeowner in Ohio who rents out rooms in the house where I live. One of my tenants, who is on a written and signed month-to-month lease, has already informed me they plan to move out on August 31, 2025. However, in the early morning of June 28, 2025, around 2:50 a.m., this tenant opened the door to my private bedroom while I was asleep, without permission. I consider this a serious violation of my privacy, safety, and peaceful enjoyment of my home. I am attaching (or bringing) a copy of the lease for your review. The lease includes general obligations regarding respect for others and peaceful enjoyment, though it may not explicitly mention bedroom boundaries. My goal is to act lawfully while protecting my safety and the peaceful use of my home. Thank you for your guidance.

I need to evict my niece and her boyfriend from my house. They have lived here for 10 months, have paid no money toward bills, and have not fulfilled their obligations when they moved in. I am in the state of Arizona.

My mother tried to get help for rental arrears but was denied because she wasn’t on the lease anymore.
I formally complained to the landlord, asking for my mother to be put back on the lease and explaining my financial hardship.
The landlord said she’d reinstate her once the first debt was paid. I paid it — but she didn’t put her back.
So, I withheld rent because the landlord retaliated by trying to evict me.

Hello, I went to court today for an eviction hearing.
We didn't end up doing the full hearing but came to an agreement between both parties.
It was decided we will be granted the writ of possession but are not to serve it before 6/15.

So I recently just signed a lease agreement with a landlord to rent out a property.
Once I gave him all my info and payment, he blocked me.
I have no way to contact him. I have the keys and access to the house still.
How should I proceed?

My question is regarding several separate, overnight activations of the building’s emergency voice/alarm system on June 30 and July 13, all of which broadcast shelter-in-place messages.

What are my rights as a rent-paying tenant in a duplex where the landlord is suing the other tenants for nonpayment and lease violations that have directly impacted my quality of life? This is in Mercer Island, WA (King County).

Not a specific question, I just wanted general knowledge. I've acquired some real estate and am looking for a basic understanding going into renting.
