Tenant Lease Termination Rules

Summary

In Virginia, tenants on a month-to-month lease must provide a 30-day notice before moving out. For fixed-term leases, tenants are generally responsible for rent for the entire lease term. If the landlord refuses to renew the lease and gives a move-out date, tenants are responsible for rent until that date. Some landlords may allow prorated rent if tenants leave early. Always check the lease agreement for specific terms and consult a local attorney for personalized advice.
