Delaware Lease Termination Letter Form – 60 Day Notice

A Delaware lease termination letter is a required notice that must be issued to terminate a lease agreement. It is mandatory whenever either the landlord or tenant is ending a month-to-month rental agreement. While a month-to-month tenancy affords flexibility, it will require at least 60 days’ notice of termination.
