How To Enforce 30 Day Notice to Vacate?
I was notified last night by my property management company (also a large, full service turnkey operator) that my tenants in one of my properties provided notice to vacate. These tenants were on a one-year lease previously, but went month-to-month in November.
Upon digging further, it turns out the tenants provided this notice to vacate on January 17th. They plan to return the keys by February 1st. This is obviously not at least the 30 days the property management company requires.
The PM said that they do not pro-rate final month’s rent. If keys are returned by Feb 1st, no rent is due; if not, tenant owes full month’s rent.
My question is it seems like the 30 day notice requirement isn’t really much of a requirement based on the timeline of this situation. Do I have any recourse?
