My rental lease ends feb 1, do I still have to give a 30 day notice before I move.I want to move Jan.31?

Answer 1

Yes, you have to give 30 day notice, better get on it! When a yearly lease ends, it automatically turns into a 30-day lease if not rewritten for another extended period of time. Do it to be safe, and today!

Answer 2

That depends on the rental lease agreement. I think it is mandatory to give a notice within a time-frame. In most cases, an advance amount is paid, a month's rent or even more.However, ifyou can persuade the landlord to waive the issue of advance notice then the problem gets resolved. If you cant then you stand to loose some money, posibly a month's rental. Would that really bother you? Just check out on escape clauses; if not, then are you capable of hoodwinking without getting caught?

Answer 3

Yes. Most leases require you to provide 30 days notice as one full rental period. The last date you could have done that for a Jan 31st move-out was December 31st. If you give notice now, it will be effective as of Feb 28th.

If your lease calls for automatic renewal for another year unless you give 30 days notice (commnon language in some areas) it is too late to give that notice now and you are locked in for another year.

Answer 4

Well some States require 60 days so hopefully you are just in the 30 day window... but usually they send a lease renewal to you. What i have in the past.. and i know this is going to sound a little complicated but you do what you gotta do right... OK so first call and say i am calling to confirm you received my notice of non renewal of my lease because non has contacted me. And of course they will say no... so then you say I faxed it (hopefully they have a fax) and i call to confirm receipt of it and none one ever called back. So What do we do know.. Because I did what i was supposed to do. Make sure you sound firm and confident.. if they don't budge ask to speak to the manager. And if they are giving you a hard way go...go to the owners... Believe me I've done this before, actually just in December. So make sure you get on this right now.... and good luck

Answer 5

If you give notice today, you can move out anytime you want, but you will be responsible for the current month and any prorated rent your landlord is entitled. If your landlord has sent you a reminder that your lease is about to expire, it's your responsibility to give resonable notice in a resonable amout of time. You may be responsible for the entire month of February, depending on your state.

The reason you have to give 30 days is so that the landlord has time to fix any damages (including normal wear and tear), paint, lay down carpet, and take measures to to find a new tenant. It is unfair for them if you just decided to leave without these considerations. The best thing to do is to go to your landlord and tell him/her that you want to be out by the 31st. It may be ok if he already has people wanting to move in.

Good luck.

Answer 6

Giving notice would be the right thing to do. It probably asks in the lease agreement that you give notice. The owner of the property can run an ad and possibly get a new tenant in there when you leave helping his vacancy rate to stay low. He/she will greatly appreciate it.

As a landlord myself, I hate when tenants just move out.

Answer 7

Usally a 30 day notice is typical..If you signed a lease you better read it carefully to see what is expected..And put the notice in writting..Its your proof you gave the landlord notice..And don't resign another lease if your serious about moving..Since your lease is up,your considered a month to month tenant...I own income property and and any landlord would appreciate the formal notice...

Answer 8

Read your lease. Some will just end if you don't renew it and they expect you to move out, others require you to let them know 30 days in advance whether you're staying or leaving.

Answer 9

I would say you have to give a 30 day notice to be on the safe side. That way you are covered on your end.

Yes
