New York Month-to-Month Rental Agreement

A New York month-to-month rental agreement is a contract to lease a property that may be ended regardless of how long the lease has been in effect. A month-to-month rental agreement, also known as a “tenancy at will,” resembles a standard lease agreement, with terms that can be determined through negotiations between landlord and tenant. But unlike most lease agreements, which often require a duration of at least a year, they can be ended by either party at any time, so long as sufficient notice is provided.

Minimum Termination Period

A tenancy from month to month of any lands or buildings located outside of the city of New York may be terminated by the landlord or the tenant upon his notifying the other at least one month before the expiration of the term.

If a landlord chooses not to renew a lease, including those under a tenancy at will, the landlord must provide at least thirty (30) days notice in all situations; if the tenant has been living at the property for more than a year but less than two years, sixty (60) days notice is required; and if the tenant has been living at the property for more than two years, ninety (90) days notice is required.
