Rules for Notice period for Term Lease in California
I always thought that no 30 day notice is necessary if tenant wants to move out at the end of lease term. However we were watching the COVID FAQ and it feels to me that 30 day notice is still required from Landlords. Is this still true for tenant.
Specifically we had a lease expiring on June 30. Our tenant told us early june that they will not continue next year but did not provide any date. We asked them to provide moveout date, so we can look for tenant. We followed up a week later and were told they are still looking. In late june, few days before the tenant told us they are moving out and to plan accordingly.
Now we are trying to find tenant. With the shutdowns and everything going on most people seeing the house want time to give notice to their current landlord. My question is - can we recover this loss from tenant as notice pay.
Thank you for your opinion.
