A New Hampshire month-to-month rental agreement is a contract between a landlord and tenant that can be terminated with a minimum of 30 days’ notice. Also known as a ‘tenancy at-will’, this type of arrangement is for a short-term arrangement or if both parties do not know when the tenancy will end. This is common if the landlord is seeking to sell or do construction on the premises and cannot commit to a long-term agreement.
