Question: Per my lease agreement I sent notice to my landlord that I wanted to renew the lease a month prior to lease ending via email 6/28/19, the same day he sent me notice of rent increase which was received on 6/29/19. He recently replied that we are on a month to month, our lease does not end until July 31st at 5pm. He took over two weeks to respond to email, I am unable to give him 30days notice as he took too long to respond, I recently emailed back accepting he rental amount if a lease is written. What right do I have? Last year when he raised the rent he back dated the 30 day notice.
Answer: Whenever a rental agreement for a specific term ends, but neither party terminates it in writing and no new agreement is executed, the existing agreement becomes month-to-month – either at the same rent rate or at the additional month-to-month rent rate if one was specified in the original rental agreement. Either side may terminate a month-to-month rental agreement with 30 days’ written notice (A.R.S. 33-1375).
