Frequently asked questions

How much notice must a landlord give to end a month-to-month tenancy in Arkansas?

At least 30 days' written notice.

Does the termination date have to line up with the rent due date?

In many states the notice must expire at the end of a rental period (often the last day of a month). Setting the termination date to the end of a full rental period after the notice window is the safest practice.

Do I need a reason to end a month-to-month tenancy in Arkansas?

Historically, most states allow no-cause termination of month-to-month tenancies with proper notice — but a growing number of states and cities require just cause. Verify current Arkansas law and any local ordinances before serving notice.
