I assume that this message that you received was in a test ???
If so then that would be considered oral !!!
Notice to Landlord:
Leases can vary as to the time required to terminate the lease agreement. Most leases that specify a
definite term of tenancy (such as a 6 month or 1 year lease) state the amount of time required for notice
to terminate or renew the lease or they expire upon the termination of the expired time. If you have a
lease read it carefully for notice requirements. If a written lease does not give a specific time period for
renewal or expiration of the lease, then advance notice must be given at least one full rental period
before the tenancy’s last day.
Notice from the Landlord:
Unless a tenant is being evicted the landlord must give the same notice requirements as the tenant is
required to give.
