ยง 248. Effect of conveyance where property is leased. An attornment to
a grantee is not requisite to the validity of a conveyance of real
property occupied by a tenant, or of the rents or profits thereof, or
any other interest therein. But the payment of rent to a grantor, by his
tenant, before notice of the conveyance, binds the grantee; and the
tenant is not liable to such grantee, before such notice, for the breach
of any condition of the lease.
