Property Management
Under Pennsylvania law, a landlord must give a month-to-month tenant written notice before terminating the tenancy of at least:
A7 days
B15 days✓ Correct
C30 days
D60 days
Explanation
Pennsylvania's Landlord and Tenant Act of 1951 requires at least 15 days' written notice to terminate a month-to-month tenancy. This applies to both landlord-initiated and tenant-initiated terminations of monthly tenancies. The notice period ensures both parties have adequate time to find alternative arrangements or replacement tenants. Some local ordinances, particularly in Philadelphia, may require longer notice periods, so agents should verify local requirements when managing properties.
