The House Committee on Housing and Homelessness on May 21 voted to advance Senate Bill 586A to the House floor with a due‑pass recommendation.

The bill, explained to the committee by a staff presenter identified as Eva, provides that when a landlord is terminating a tenancy because of an accepted purchase offer, the notice period may be reduced to no fewer than 60 days before the designated termination date if the landlord supplies written evidence of the accepted offer and pays the tenant an amount equal to one month’s periodic rent plus any additional required amount at the time of notice.

SB 586A clarifies that termination for a fixed‑term tenancy may occur only after the fixed term has expired, and separately specifies a 90‑day minimum notice for termination when appropriate. The measure takes effect on the 91st day following adjournment sine die, and committee staff reported the measure would have a minimal fiscal impact and no revenue impact.

Vice Chair Breese Iverson moved the measure to the floor with a due‑pass recommendation; the committee called the roll and the motion passed. Representative Jaffidi (recorded in the transcript as offering to carry the bill on the floor) was noted as the floor carrier.

The committee did not record extended debate on the bill during the session; the transcript shows the committee accepted staff summary, moved the bill, and completed a roll‑call vote.
