  • Within 14 days of receiving the deposit, landlords must provide tenants with a written notice explaining the conditions under which they may withhold all or part of the deposit.[3]

Early Termination Notices

  • If a material defect occurs on the property, the landlord must cure it within ten days after receiving notice from the tenant. If it is not fixed within 20 days, The tenant can terminate the tenancy.
  • For all other terminations, the tenants must give landlords a 30-day notice to terminate the lease.[4]

Subletting Rules

Tenants must get prior approval, in writing, from the landlord to sublet their unit.[6]

Eviction Process
