    I have no doubt he did. But what you don't say is whether the lease specified a longer period or not. I suspect it did not. Unless otherwise specified a periodic tenancy generally requires only notice equal to one period.

    Guys - this is an OLD VA format lease that has been superseded by VA state law on military and SSCRA... the month to month is a misnomer that really means a periodic tenancy that needs to be terminated by 60 days written notice by either the TENANTS or the LANDLORD... OP should move as scheduled and let the landlord sue them in SCC and let the landlord explain why they are using an antiquated lease format that is conflicting in its wording.

    I was hoping you would weigh in on this one. But I'm confused. Are you saying that VA state law says 60 days? Or that this old lease says 60 days and VA law has changed? Since the LL says 60 days, if 60 days is correct then the LL is right.
