Does Landlord Need to Give Notice if Tenant Emails Notice

Hi BP,

I just took over the management of my properties in Indiana.  One tenant is currently on a month-to-month tenancyIf they email me with their intention to leave on x date, do I (as the landlord) still need to provide official 30 day written notice too?

I don't think this will happen, I am just concerned that my tenant will change his mind at the last minute and decide to stay (not sure if email notice from the tenant is considered "official" notice).

Thanks in advance!

@Dean West  I would send an email back confirming the date they are out and the date you are in possession. How to return keys,  the condition you expect the property in etc. should be mentioned.   You don't need to give them notice, Just confirm they will be out and that terminates the lease.
