Most tenants who decide to move into a new apartment will choose to go with a traditional fixed-term lease. This allows them a way to know how much the rent is and to have protections for the entire term of the lease, which is usually for a year. It works out well for the tenant and the landlord. But this method of lease agreement may not work for everyone and there are times when you may desire to work on something else. This is where the month to month lease makes a lot of sense.

There are a number of different benefits to choosing a month to month lease. One of these is that it will not have a definite end date, but unless the tenant or landlord says otherwise, it will continue to renew automatically each month. One or both of the parties can step up and ask for the changes to be made, and then the other party reserves the right to say no or move out.

Since you do not have to worry about the lease ending, you can decide at the end of the month that it is time to move out, whether you have been there for a few months or if you have been there a few years. You do need to give the proper notice on this one, usually somewhere between 30 to 60 days depending on the state you live in, but you do not have to wait longer than that. This makes it easier if you think that you will need to move out quickly at some point in the next year.

Keep in mind that the rent on some of the apartments that are offered on month to month leases will be higher than what you will find with the fixed-term leases. But that is what you can get for some of the flexibility you are looking for. Landlords prefer the fixed-term in most cases because it provides them more stability for their rentals.
