On a month to month tenancy, the law says a party has to give the other party 30 days notice. Does this mean a full months notice or literally 30 days? i.e. if the tenant is notifiying the landlord on December 15th is the move out date January 31st or January 15th?

30 days from the actual date (day) the party is given notice. Goes either way, if you are the tenant or the landlord. If notice is in written form then it would be 30 days from the date of the letter unless otherwise stated. Hope this helps.

In most states, a month to month tenancy is defined by a calendar month, or any month long period starting with the rent due date. If the rent due date is the first of the month and the tenant notifies on December 15, the notice has the effect of being effective as of January 1, and the tenant would owe the entire month of January, whether or not the tenant stays in the unit.
Ignore the other responses indicating that it's an actual thirty day time frame. That's just not the way it is. It's a common misconception that it is an actual thirty days.

First, there is not any reason that your mom could have despatched a letter on your sisters landlord. Your mom has no canine in this combat, and your sisters landlord has no reason to respond to any letters from every person however the tenant. The 30 day word to terminate tenancy grew to become into an outstanding way of asserting 'it is not figuring out between us and additionally you may take the subsequent 30 days to detect yet another place to stay', she did no longer and she or he did no longer pay the employ, so now any agreements are out the window as is her hazard at prevailing something in courtroom (which grew to become into slender to none besides). the three day word to pay or stop, is in fact an eviction word for non fee of employ. the 1st ingredient you're able to do is tell your mom to strategies her very own business company, i might take it very own too, in case you threatened me with a lawsuit and then tried to extort 2 months of loose employ out of me. the perfect protection she will make is to ensue together with her employ and any previous due funds, and ask her landlord to enable her stay. uncomplicated as that.

Your lease will tell you.
On a written lease, landlords will generally put in the lease that they will not prorate rent. So if you put in your 30-day notice on November 15th, you are still obligated for rent until December 31st.
Now, if you don't have a written lease and it's a statutory (by law) lease....then it's 30 calender days and you would prorate the rent.

You have to give 30 days from the date you plan to move, but you need to check and see if they allow prorated rent. If you gave them notice on Dec 15 to move on Jan 15, you may be stuck paying the entire January rent.

Make sure that the 30 days is documented in paperwork. Such as registered mail with return receipt.
