Since you do not have a lease, the management company has no obligation to allow you to stay. If they are not going to renew your monthly lease, they need to give you 30 days notice and you need to vacate the apartment. Champman Management would have to honor any outstanding leases that the previous owners had with their tenants. However, you did not have a lease, which you renewed each year. The lease agreement they cite would have no baring on you since you did not have a lease which they could use to enforce against you and force you out. Basically, they just need to say they are not allowing you to stay, are not accepting you rent check and to give you 30 days notice to vacate. I'm sorry that the management company is acting in this manner but if you really want to stay, you should try and work something out with them. Considering giving them the information they want and asking to signing year lease, so you have a legal right to stay in your apartment.
