Our 30 day notice to landlord example (below) is written for tenants - If you are a landlord or property manager, Click here for our 30 day notice to vacate.

If you have a month to month lease, you'll need to inform your landlord at least 30 days in advance. This is to give the landlord enough time to find a new tenant.

Once the landlord receives the tenant's 30 day notice, the tenant will still have to pay rent for the next 30 days unless the landlord is able to replace him with a new renter before that.

Example: If you're a tenant and you send this notice on 18 May, you'll have to continue paying rent until 18 June. However if your landlord found a replacement tenant who moved in on 30 May, then you're only have to pay your landlord 12 days of rent (from 18 May to 30 May).

Before ending your tenancy, we highly recommend that you read our step by step guide on how to break a lease legally.

Quick tip for tenants: To improve your chances of a full security deposit refund, take some time to go through our move out cleaning checklist before you return the property.

*While we make every effort to ensure that our forms are useful, you must edit them according to your personal needs and local landlord tenant laws. Always seek legal advice when in doubt.
