The landlord tenant laws that allow you to break a lease are different from state to state. In many places, you can get out of your lease without penalty for a number of reasons, such as domestic violence, an unsafe environment, or if you've been called up for military service.
No, lease agreements don't have to be notarized in Arizona. A lease can be notarized if the tenant and landlord want it to be. It is not, however, required by law for the rental agreement to be legally binding.
The notice typically includes the address of the rental property, a clear statement of intent to end the lease, and the effective date of termination, which should be at least 30 days from the date of the document. Signatures of the parties involved are necessary to validate the termination letter.
There is no law regulating what kind of advance notice, if any, is required to stay on or vacate when the lease ends. On occasion a lease will state that it automatically renews unless either party gives notice otherwise. More frequently, a 30-day or 60-day notice must be provided by one party to the other.
But the landlord can't just kick out the tenant, change the locks, or turn off the utilities. The landlord must follow all the steps the law says must be taken. And the tenant should not just stop paying the rent unless the tenant first follows all the steps the law says must be taken.
Tenants can break a lease in Arizona as long as they meet one of the requirements we'll explain below: Uninhabitable Unit. Active Military Duty. Early Lease Termination Clause. Landlord Harassment. Domestic Violence.
