pokey33 | My landlord asked me to leave his property in 30 days how many days do I have legally? |
I have been in this house for 13 years, have not missed paying rent nor have I ever been late, there is a problem with the yard in back, the city asked him to fix the problem he wants me to fix it, its his property I think he should fix it. Now he wants me out of his house in 30 days. Do I pay rent during these 30 days while I am looking for someplace else to live. |

You must be on a month to month rent basis after all these years. He is within his rights to give you 30 days. Yes, you pay rent for that last 30 days, but if you have a 1st and last, plus security, your last month is already paid. Make sure you leave the place in a condition that you will get your money back. Make sure you take LOTS of pics once the place is all cleaned up...no holes in the walls, bathrooms and kitchen clean, etc. That way, if he tries to keep your deposit, you can take him to court. Unless you cause the back yard problem, then he may come after you. |

It all depends on the law in your area.
Here, you would be under no obligation to leave. You can't evict without cause (non-payment of rent, violation of the terms and conditions of the lease, etc) in a property that is not owner-occupied in this area. This may or may not also be the case where you live.
You didn't say what area you are located in, so perhaps none of the answers you will be given will be correct. The law is different in every place.
I keep seeing people advise others on this board that you "have to leave when your lease is up" or that the "landlord does not have to continue to rent to you". That is not true. In many areas your lease automatically renews but on a month to month basis rather than the original term (1 year, 2 years, etc) unless the tenant gives notice that they are vacating at the end of the lease. |

Most munincipalities allow for thirty day notices, however, check with an attorny or legal aid. Sounds to me like you have a case. |

depends on your lease and local renting laws, for example in NSW Australia its 14 days at the end of a lease, 4 weeks if the property is being sold and 6 weeks if the lease has run out and the tennant is paying month to month. |

Yes, rent is due and 30-days (in most states) is a proper amount of time, as long as, you were notified properly and in writing. |

you have thirty days. you should pay the final month's rent, and request that he refund your security deposit. |

You can fix the property and deduct it from your rent but you need proof of what you bought and pictures are always a good idea of the before and after. As for moving out I believe the landlord has to take you to court in order to try to evict you , Id like to know what happens with you . please e mail me or message me-hotlilnumba1001 |

Since each state has different laws here is a site that give the laws of each state...go to Laws & Statutes and then the state in which you live.
Theres legal resourses, a live chat room and much more on your rights as a tenant. |

Yes, you have to pay while you live there. You may have paid when you moved in 13 years ago, so try to remember...
If the problem with the yard in back makes the property uninhabitable, and it was his responsibility to maintain the property, you may be able to recover some of your rent for his failure to maintain the conditions. This worked for me in Santa Cruz, CA.
Unless there is a law that requires he give you more time, or there is a lease that you signed that isn't up yet (ie: you rent on a month-to-month basis,) your landlord is within his rights to give you 30 days to move out.
Lastly, in CA, renters are entitled to earn 5% on the monies their landlords hold as security/rent deposits. Not sure what state you are in, but something similar may apply. Check with a local renter's advocacy group. |

Make him take you to court
That may buy you 90 days and maybe rent free,,depends what the Judge says.
If he's going to be a Prick than so can't you. |

30 days!!!!
if you have a problem with this, and good rental history, talk to your landlord.
remember though, the landlord doesn't have to continue to rent to you when your lease is up! pay your rent, or lose your deposit, and possibly face the landlord in court.
however, if your lease isn't up, but he wishes to have you move out, you could possible end up living there (AND PAY RENT) until the lease is up. you don't get "free months" |

It depends on the state. In Hawaii, you have 45 days from the date of notification. And yes, you still have to pay rent for that time frame. |
