Property Management

Under Louisiana landlord-tenant law, when a residential tenant's lease expires and the tenant remains in possession with the landlord's implied consent, the tenancy becomes:

AA tenancy at sufferance
BA holdover tenancy (month-to-month)✓ Correct
CAn automatic renewal for the same term
DTrespassing subject to immediate eviction

Explanation

In Louisiana, when a tenant holds over after lease expiration with the landlord's implied consent (e.g., continuing to accept rent), the tenancy converts to a month-to-month holdover tenancy. The landlord must give proper notice to terminate.
