Art. 261 CO

Se, dopo la conclusione del contratto, la cosa è alienata dal locatore o gli è tolta nell’ambito di un procedimento di esecuzione o fallimento, la locazione passa all’acquirente con la proprietà della cosa.

Tuttavia, il nuovo proprietario può dare la disdetta per la prossima scadenza legale, rispettando il termine legale di preavviso: a. in caso di locazione di abitazioni o locali commerciali, se fa valere un urgente bisogno personale, suo proprio o dei suoi stretti parenti od affini; b. in caso di locazione di altre cose, se il contratto non consente più pronto scioglimento.

Se il nuovo proprietario dà la disdetta prima di quanto consentito dal contratto, il locatore precedente risponde verso il conduttore di tutti i danni che ne derivano.

Sono salve le disposizioni sull’espropriazione.
