    Gave 30 day notice on month to month agreement

    I did give notice in writing on 9/10. I stated in that writing that "I give you my 30 days move out notice today" Is that not enough? Did I specifically need to say which day and year?

    Gave 30 day notice on month to month agreement

    Thank you. Assuming I need to go to small claims court to get the money refunded, could the fact that I paid rent for the days after the 30 day notice expires be used against me? The landlord is also willing to go to court. They could ask why I paid the rent in full and not the prorated amount...

    Gave 30 day notice on month to month agreement

    What about this part? "as to tenancies from month to month either of the parties may terminate the same by giving at least 30 days' written notice thereof at any time and the rent shall be due and payable to and including the date of termination." Law section

    Gave 30 day notice on month to month agreement

    I would say that my reason for paying the full rent was that they might retaliate in some way if I didn't, and that I expected it was the landlord will refund me the days after the notice expires and figure out how much I needed to get back.

    Gave 30 day notice on month to month agreement

    I wanted to follow up in reply to this post. So you are saying there was no need to prepay the rent in full on the 25th? I only did so per the landlord's request and because I would not be moving out until after the rent was due. I did so with the expectation that the landlord will refund me the...

    Gave 30 day notice on month to month agreement

    I am on a month to month agreement and gave 30 day notice on 9/10. My rent is due starting the 25th of each month. After I gave notice my landlord said that I had to pay the full rent on 9/25 and the lease will end on 10/25. Should I get refunded the days from 10/11 to 10/25 if I moved out and...

    Security Deposit Rental agreement question

    Ok, my question now is how soon to give the letter requesting the return of security deposit to him? Would it be enough to hand it to him when I move out or email him? Do I need to wait until a few days after I have moved out and then send it to him via USPS Mail with delivery confirmation? Thanks.

    Security Deposit Rental agreement question

    Are you saying that his written text is not good enough of evidence that he is supposed to refund me then? what if he had written a statement and signed it saying he would refund me if I move out on the 18th? I will take pictures and video. However, the carpet already had some small stains on...

    Security Deposit Rental agreement question

    Thanks for the replies. I have a follow up question now. I gave him my 1 month notice on May 1 to move out June 1. I pay full rent for May. He then texts me a few days later that he has a new tenant ready to move in any day of the month and he will refund me the prorated amount if I move out...

    Security Deposit Rental agreement question

    Currently I am in CA and subleasing a room in a house from a tenant who rents it. When I moved in, I only filled out a form called rental application which showed my lease term for 6 months, and how much I paid in first months rent and the security deposit. It also has my personal and rental...
