Either party may end a month-to-month tenancy by giving at least one calendar month’s written notice at any time; rent runs to and including the termination date (§47-16-15(2)). If a residential tenant holds over after the lease expires and the landlord accepts rent, the tenancy becomes month-to-month (§47-16-06).
