Final Answer : A, Explanation :  A tenancy at will is a type of rental agreement that either party can terminate at any time. When the property is sold, the new owner inherits the property subject to existing tenancies. However, because a tenancy at will does not have a fixed term, the new owner can choose to terminate the agreement, effectively ending the rental agreement in most states.
