I see. In Kentucky:
- A written notice is required before eviction.
- This notice must be given at least 30 days prior to eviction if it's a month-to-month lease.
- For a fixed-term lease, it's usually outlined in the lease agreement.
Please consult with a local attorney to ensure all actions are legal.
Well if it's renting to a minor with the mother involved
If you're renting to a minor with a guardian involved, it gets complex. Minors cannot enter into contracts, including leases. Therefore, the lease should be with the mother. Please consult with a local attorney for specific advice.
What if it's only via verbal agreement?
In Kentucky, while verbal rental agreements are legal, they may complicate matters. It's advisable to have a written lease for clarity. If a dispute arises, it will be hard to prove what was agreed upon verbally. Professional legal guidance is recommended.
