The VA in this case candidly concedes that the reason it seeks to evict Valentine is to facilitate prompt resale of the property. By clear implication, however, subsection (e) prohibits evictions in contemplation of sale except where the owner has a written contract to sell the housing accommodation to a purchaser who intends to occupy the premises immediately for his own personal use. Even then, the owner must first have offered the tenant an opportunity to purchase the property himself.
