tenancy at sufferance

   Also found in: Financial, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

tenancy at sufferance n. a "hold-over" tenancy after a lease has expired, but before the landlord has demanded that the tenant quit (vacate) the premises. During a tenancy at sufferance the tenant is bound by the terms of the lease (including payment of rent) which existed before it expired. The only difference between a "tenancy at sufferance" and a "tenancy at will" is that the latter was created by agreement. (See: tenancy, unlawful detainer, tenancy at will)
