I am moving at the end of the month, and when I gave my 30 day notice my landlord claimed I have to give 60 days notice.
But the thing is I did not pay 1st and last months rent when I moved in here. No other deposit, nothing, literally just the 1st months rent.
This is an apartment I am currently renting. In the last 4 years of living here the landlord has changed twice. I am leaving regardless at the end of the month, but just wondering what will occur now. Thanks :)

Extra info - This is in Ontario Canada, and no lease was ever signed. Thanks again :)

This should be in your lease. If the landlord has changed and you have not gotten a new lease then the one from the beginning is what you go by. If you have no lease and it was month to month then you don't have to give 60 days.

I dont know what state you are in but here in California
A LANDLORD has to give 30 days to raise rent if you have been there less than a year or are raising rent by less than 10%
and
give 60 days notice when renter has been there longer than a year or raising the rent by more than 10%.
Sooooo if he was in CA I would say he is confusing Landlord responsibility with Tenant responsibility.
In CA you only have to give 30 days that I am aware of.
google the name of your state with the following
"landlord tenant rights handbook". They arent that big ....usually a pdf of about 30 pages or so and not hard to read.
Good Luck

Depends on your lease.
But in most states if you have no lease then your tenancy is considered month to month and you have to give a written 30 day notice.
Consult your state's renters board.

It would depend on your contract. If the landlord can produce a contract you signed you are stuck with it. If not it would be what is customary in the area.
