Property Management

What is a 'month-to-month' tenancy and how does it work under Hawaii law?

AA. A fixed-term lease that automatically converts to a one-year lease if the tenant doesn't move out
BB. A periodic tenancy continuing from month to month, terminable by either party with proper statutory notice (typically 45 days in Hawaii)✓ Correct
CC. A temporary 30-day rental allowed only for vacation rentals
DD. A tenancy created when a landlord fails to sign a lease

Explanation

A month-to-month tenancy continues indefinitely from month to month until either party gives proper notice. Under Hawaii's Residential Landlord-Tenant Code, either party must give 45 days' written notice to terminate a month-to-month tenancy (with some exceptions). This provides more flexibility than a fixed-term lease.
