California Crime-Free Housing Addendum FAQs

How much notice does a landlord need to end a month-to-month tenancy in California?

30 days if the tenant has lived there under a year, and 60 days if a year or more; a tenant gives 30 days either way. After 12 months, the landlord also needs a valid “just cause” under the Tenant Protection Act, not just the notice (§§1946.1, 1946.2).
