Notice to quite required 60 days before end of lease

[Andy Casey]

Hi , I had a quick question about the notice to quite laws in North Carolina…. I am have a small rental portfolio in Oregon. And was talking to my sister who is renting in Charlotte she was getting ready to move at the end of her year to year lease and gave them a 30 day notice. They are saying that she is required to give them a 60 day notice and the rent was going to be almost double because it would be month to month… dose that sound right or are they trying to pull one over on her?

So the basic laws in NC only require 30 days notice for a year long lease, however most leases for apartments do state in their leases that 60 days notice is required. If she checks her lease, it should state clearly what notice is required. The lease supercedes the law as long as it's not breaking the law. 

When leases go month to month with apartment buildings, they generally charge a ridiculous amount for it. 

Its not right, in my opinion, but it sounds normal for this area.
