A Massachusetts month-to-month rental agreement (otherwise known as a “Tenancy at Will”) is a real estate contract for residential property that has no termination date and is renewed monthly. The document has no end date but can be changed or terminated with written notice to one another and at least thirty (30) days’ notice (unless otherwise stated in the agreement).

The landlord is recommended to ask potential tenants to undergo a credit check through a rental application to verify that they can pay rent and have a good history of leasing with other landlords/management companies. Otherwise, the landlord may accept a Security Deposit and collect last month’s rent so that if the tenant does not pay, the landlord will be covered for a thirty (30) day period of non-payment.

Minimum Termination Notice

A month-to-month rental agreement can be terminated by the landlord or tenant by providing at least thirty (30) days notice (Chapter 186 § 12)
