Complete Legal Vermont Lease Termination Forms For Free

A landlord or property manager in Vermont can use the Vermont Landlord Notice to Vacate Form when they want a tenant to vacate the rental property at the end of their lease (or leave in 30 days or more if there is no lease).

A Vermont 14-day notice to quit (criminal activity) is a document that a landlord presents to a tenant in the event of suspected criminal activity, illegal drug activity, or acts of violence that threaten the health and well being of other tenants (residents) and that make the tenant eligible for eviction.

A landlord can terminate a lease for no cause if: For month to month leases, tenants are given 60 days written notice. For week to week leases, tenants are given 21 days written notice. Tenants who have resided in the rental for more than 2 continuous years are given 90 days written notice.

(d) Unless inconsistent with a written rental agreement or otherwise provided by law, a tenant may terminate a tenancy by actual notice given to the landlord at least one rental payment period prior to the termination date specified in the notice.

If the landlord has given you a 60 day notice to end the tenancy but you want to leave sooner, you need to give notice one rental payment period in advance. Even if your rental agreement says that your tenancy ends on a particular date, you should give written notice anyway. Always keep a copy for yourself.

Before you file an eviction case in court, you must give the tenant written notice that you are ending the tenancy. If the tenant does not leave, you can only evict them if you get a court order. You may not change the locks or remove their things without a court order.
