A Michigan month-to-month lease agreement is between a landlord and tenant for the renting of residential property without an end date. The lease will continue for an indefinite period until either the landlord or tenant decide to terminate by sending a notice to the other party.

In Michigan, the maximum length of a standard residential lease agreement is one (1) year. If all parties agree on a longer lease (greater than one year), it must be written. While oral leases are valid for shorter leases, written leases provide greater legal protections for all parties.

Leases don't have to be in writing. But if a lease is written, it must include the name and address where the landlord will notify the tenant of changes to the lease. The lease must tell tenants they must give the landlord a forwarding address in writing where they can be reached within four days after moving out.

Usually a month-to-month tenancy, the lease is considered renewed at the end of each rental period (month- to-month or week-to-week, depending upon how often rent must be paid). Termination procedure is governed by statute and requires notice. Tenancy: This type of tenancy is created by operation of law only.
