Connecticut statutes do not specify a notice period for terminating a month-to-month lease. Therefore, it is best to read the lease made with the previous landlord to see if a notice period is mentioned.
If no notice period is mentioned, giving 30 days notice is recommended. A termination letter should be sent by certified mail with a return receipt.

Hi, in CT how much notice do I need to give to end a month-to-month lease?

I understand you have a question about ending a month-to-month lease in Connecticut. How long have you been renting the property?

I just purchased the property.

Have you reviewed your lease agreement to see if it specifies a notice period for terminating the lease?

It started as a year lease in 2022 and ended in 2023 and is now a month-to-month lease with no specific notice period for terminating the lease.

Is there anything else the Lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured, they’ll be able to help with your lease termination.

No.

I closed on the property Jan 31.

And this tenant had a yearly lease that ended in 2023 and is currently on month-to-month.

And that is all, I just send a lease termination notice with 30 days, and that is it?

Thank you.
