A lot of renters don’t really understand how lease agreements work. Leases don’t just end when the lease expiration date is reached, the remain intact until you terminate the lease OR until you sign a new lease.

Think about it, it wouldn’t make sense for suddenly to have all the terms in the lease end. How would you know how much rent to pay? What about late fees, pets, guests, etc. ALL of the original terms are still there just like they were when you first signed your lease. You are now on a month to month contract which means the lease automatically renews for 30 days unless a termination notice is given. This is a basic law covered by all States.

You mentioned that you don’t have any rights because your lease agreement expired. That’s not true! You have the same rights and protection that the original agreement had. In fact the terms within the lease are still all valid, unless the landlord provided an addendum that changed them.
Your lease is still valid– its just that now you can move by providing a 30 day notice. Look at it as a goal… you reached the goal to stay in the rental for a year– anything after that is just extra time on the original lease. Basically you have met your obligation.
