60-Day Notice of Termination

A 60-day notice of termination is given to end a rental agreement of 1 year or more. It is usually used to end a month-to-month tenancy or an “at-will” tenancy, one in which the tenant has legally stayed past the stated rental period in a lease.

 

The important thing to remember about using a 60-day notice is that the California Tenant Protection Act of 2019 might require a stated just-cause reason to evict a tenant. If you do not fall into one of the exceptions, an “at-fault” or a “no-fault” reason must be stated.

 

This notice must include information about abandoned property.

 

If Security Deposit is involved, that requires a tenant to leave the premises in the same condition as at inception, a landlord is required to give that tenant a Notice of Tenant’s Right to Initial Inspection.
