FAQs

Generally speaking, a month-to-month lease agreement is terminated by giving 1 (ONE) calendar month written notice that indicates that the lease agreement is terminated. (Eg: notice is given in January that says that the lease will terminate at the end of February). This is what is contemplated in the Rental Housing Act, 50 of 1999.

A month-to-month lease agreement is where the fixed term has ended and the occupiers are still in the property.

If the lease agreement has a clause that automatically renews the lease agreement for a further mentioned period of time, then the lease agreement is not a month-to-month lease agreement.
