West Virginia Eviction Notice FAQs

How much notice is required to end a month-to-month lease in West Virginia?

One full rental period before the end of a period — so a full month for a monthly tenancy. Year-to-year tenancies need three months’ written notice, and the lease can set a different period by agreement (§37-6-5).
