I’ll try to keep this brief. Our lease ends at the end of this month, APRIL. my wife and I have not signed anything to renew any lease whatsoever. We submitted our notice on April 3rd and our last will be May 31st.

They are telling me that per our “contract” that we have to pay for the full month of JUNE as well. Even though our actual contract ends April 30th. And we are doing a month to month for May (this is what happens when you don’t sign or renew the lease) So we have not signed a new contract or agreed to anything, we gave a move out notice, and they’re telling us no.

I also have all documents and “receipts” to back up this claim.

      They can get an extra day from you to make it 60

      But they can’t force you to pay entire month GENERALLY

      Practically they withhold your deposit and tell you to get fucked.

      You will need to take them to a small claims court and ezain the situation to a judge in plain English. Depending on your state, you have a decent chance of recovery since your land lord over played its hand

      With that being said you need to check the contract this specifically… Does it have a rounding up provision ie well its. June 1 so you pay entire month. Enforcing that is state dependent. Red states would side with ll, while blue states will generally side with tenant.

      Obviously don’t take legal advise from an online shit poster, get a proper consult.

      Do your math again. 4/3 to 5/31 is less than 60 days.

      But also you’ll want to go through the rental agreement and your local laws to see if they can force this on you. You may just default to a month-to-month, but you may not.
