- State: North Carolina
Answer:
In North Carolina, the rules for terminating a lease depend on the type of tenancy:
- A year-to-year tenancy requires a notice to quit at least one month before the end of the current year.
- A month-to-month tenancy requires a seven-day notice.
- A week-to-week tenancy requires a two-day notice.
However, if your tenancy involves renting a space for a manufactured home, you must give at least 60 days' notice before the end of the rental period, regardless of the tenancy type (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 42-14).
For specific lease terms or conditions, consider reviewing your lease agreement or consulting a legal professional.
