There's some glitching going on when a landlord dies. It never removes the owner. The tenants will get a new landlord for interactions, but in manage worlds, the property is owned by someone. It causes confusion when you try to have someone else become the new one. To fix it you have to sell it in manage worlds. The text says "The  household will no longer be the property owner." with an extra space of where the family name should be.

For rent bug

★★★ Newbie

I started a new save and got some tenants into my rental buildings. One of my tenants passed away and the rental became vacant. I then evicted another tenant and their rental became vacant too, however, after the eviction, the first rental (of the sim that died) did not stay vacant. Nobody was in the rental itself but the game classed it as vacated. I cannot unjustly evict the tenant, because they don't exist, they don't break any rules either, because they don't exist. Going into Manage Worlds doesn't show the rental unit as a rental at all.

I'm having the same bug! Whenever a tenant dies, I can no longer fill the vacancy, but also can't evict them since they're no longer showing up. My sim had an in-law cottage and when her dad died of old age I couldn't do anything about the vacancy and it rendered the cottage useless.

Having the exact same problem

I thought it was because the death itself glitched - The Sim was dead on the floor for almost a whole evening and night and Grim seemed to be stuck on where he spawned in. Eventually, I force closed the game and when I returned she was really dead/gone, but her urn was nowhere to be found and the unit glitched out like you describe it

Something I noticed as a quick workaround: I went into manage worlds and went to the newly "vacant" (though not showing as vacant) unit, and was able to "Create a New Household to Move In". I then moved them into the unit and then was able to evict them from manage worlds. This freed up the unit and I could now fill the vacancy as the property owner!

What happens when the bug occurs? In the For Rent expansion, when an elder sim dies in a unit it won't give me possession of the apartment back as a landlord. I even "unjustly" evicted the empty unit and it does nothing.
