Landlord and Tenant Rights and Responsibilities

questions & answers

Question: my landlord back on january 21st 2020 gave me a 30 day notice to vacate, i moved out february 3rd, 2020, however my landlord is still charging me for the full month of february. can my landlord do this? i dont see how my landlord can charge me for the full month of february since i moved out february 3rd 2020, the rent should be pro-rated for the 3 days of february that i was still at my old apartment?

Answer: Yep, your landlord can charge you for the full 30 days after notice is sent, regardless of the fact that you moved out early. You could have taken your time (clean place to make sure you get deposit back) or you could have attempted to negotiate move out date with your landlord in advance. You got to be thinking about that next time.
