CALCULATION OF VACATE DATE AND NOTICE PERIOD

For periodic (month-to-month) tenancies:

• Tenant notice: one full rental period. For a monthly tenancy with rent due on the 1st, notice given mid-month typically requires vacate at end of the following month.

• Landlord no-fault: three clear months, expiring at end of a rental period.

Date computation examples:

• Notice served [[Service Date example]]: earliest valid vacate date for tenant 1-period: [[Example Tenant Vacate]]
• For landlord 3-month: [[Example Landlord Vacate]]

Fixed-term tenancies end on the stated end date in the lease unless renewed or converted. Early termination requires agreement or valid RTA ground., -
