My tenant's lease expires on 1/1/18. I was planning on serving them a 60 day notice on Nov 1. Unfortunately, they are asking about a lease renewal now, so should I just serve them early, with a 1/1/18 move-out to avoid any confusion? Is that OK?

Also, since their lease expires on 1/1/18, it's right after NYE and XMAS. What should I do if they need a few extra days to move out? They usually pay rent on the 1st of each month, so should I pro-rate rent for any additional days needed?

Thanks,

Calvin

Hi Calvin, 

I would like to recommend you get in touch with EBRHA - East Bay Rental Housing Association. It's a small fee but you can call them for any questions you have about Landlord guidelines and tenant rights. They look out for owners and property manages and are a great resource!

I did. I’m a member and they weren’t able to help with the question. They referred me to an attorney, but I figure I’d ask here first since this seems like a fairly simple question.
