An Illinois month-to-month rental agreement is a legal contract that authorizes a tenant to rent a property without a fixed end date. The agreement automatically renews at the end of each monthly period unless the landlord or tenant gives notice to cancel.

Laws

  • Minimum Termination Period – 30 days’ notice is required to terminate a month-to-month lease agreement.[1] 7 days’ notice is required to terminate week-to-week tenancy.[2]
  • Increasing Rent – State law does not limit the discretion of landlords to raise rent. Giving 30 days’ notice is recommended.
