As I explained above, one of the reasons for the termination of the lease agreement in residential and roofed workplace rentals is the need of the lessor for the leased property. In the case of the demand for the evacuation of the lessee due to need, the lessor can provide the evacuation of the immovable with this type of lawsuit, if the conditions sought by the law are met.
WHAT ARE THE NEEDS OF THE LEASOR?
The person who has leased his immovable may need this immovable during the continuation of the lease agreement. As a matter of fact, in case the lessor has such a need, the lessor can acquire the immovable thanks to the rights recognized by the law.
These requirements are regulated in the Turkish Code of Obligations:
A) If the rented immovable is needed as a residence or workplace by the lessor’s spouse, descendants, descendants or other dependents, an eviction request may be made due to the lessor’s requirement. In order to realize this situation, which is limited to the persons who are numbered here, the need is sought to be “sincere and real”. As a matter of fact, the importance of this issue is emphasized in the decisions of the Supreme Court:
“As for our case; In the warning and lawsuit petition dated 01.07.2014, the attorney of the plaintiff declared that he wanted to use the shop that was the subject of the lawsuit, which he had just acquired, on the claim that his client did not have a job, but did not explain what work would be done by the needy in the leased property, and did not make any statement regarding this issue during the trial, and the plaintiff’s witness was heard. He also stated that the plaintiff was planning to do business, but he did not know what business he would do. In this case, since it is understood that the plaintiff who has acquired the leased property has not yet decided for what purpose he wants to use the leased property, which is the subject of the lawsuit he has acquired with the claim of workplace need, and since this issue has been confirmed by the statement of witnesses, it cannot be said that the need for the workplace is real, sincere and compulsory, while the court should decide to reject the lawsuit, It is not correct to accept the case with a written justification.”
B) If it is necessary to repair, expand or change the leased immovable for the purpose of reconstruction or zoning, and if the use of the leased property will become impossible during the construction of these works, it is possible to evacuate the leased property by the lessor.
C) Evacuation of the immovable is made possible if the new owner of the immovable needs it. In the event that the owner of the leased property changes after the establishment of the lease agreement, the new owner of the immovable becomes the new party of the lease agreement. In the event that the new owner and other persons (spouse, descendants, descendants, dependents) need the real estate, it is possible to evacuate the real estate. In the proceedings, it is sought that the needs of the new owner and few other persons are “real and sincere”.
HOW TO OPEN A CASE FOR EVACUATION DUE TO THE NEED OF THE LEASOR?
If the lessor, his spouse, descendants, descendants or other dependents need the leased property; The lessor must file an eviction lawsuit within 1 month, starting from the specified date, provided that the termination notice periods are respected.
In cases where the leased property needs to be repaired, expanded or changed for the purpose of rebuilding or zoning, the lessor must file an eviction lawsuit within 1 month, starting from the specified date, provided that the notice period of termination is complied with.
In the event that the owner of the leased immovable changes and the need of the new owner comes to the fore, our law has given us two different possibilities:
-The new owner must notify the tenant in writing of his/her request to be evicted within 1 month from the date of acquisition of the immovable. If this condition is met, the new owner can evacuate the leased property with an eviction lawsuit to be filed after 6 months. The Supreme Court Decisions are also in this direction in the evacuation of the rented immovable due to necessity.
In the decisions of the Court of Cassation, “The person who acquires an immovable property in the form of a residence or a roofed workplace, if he wishes, within one month at the end of the contract based on the agreement made between the former owner and the tenant, or within one month starting from the date of acquisition, including the day of acquisition, pursuant to Article 351 of the TCO, if he wishes. can file an eviction lawsuit due to need six months after the acquisition date, provided that the tenant is informed in writing. The lawsuit does not have to be opened immediately at the end of six months, but it is possible to open it until the end of the contract. However, notification of the notification within one month following the acquisition is obligatory and it is not possible to rectify it later. This point is explained in the form.
-The new owner can evacuate the lessee by filing an eviction lawsuit within 1 month from the end of the lease contract.
It is possible to evacuate the leased property by the new owner by choosing one of the two possibilities provided by the law.
