Connecticut Lease Termination Letter

Delivery: Notice must be delivered to the tenant or left at the tenant&#8217;s residence. [1]
Notice Period: No statute. 30 days is recommended.

A Connecticut lease termination letter allows the landlord or tenant to terminate a month-to-month lease. For nonpayment of rent, termination takes effect at the end of the same month the notice is delivered. However, 30 days' notice is recommended to give the tenant enough time to vacate the premises.
