[00:00:05 Text: If your rental agreement says how much notice you must give, you must do what the agreement says.]
[00:00:09 Text: The notice must be in writing. Keep a copy for yourself. Mail or hand deliver the notice to your landlord.]
[00:00:14 Text: If your rental agreement doesn't cover how long the tenancy is, or how much notice you have to give before you move out, the Residential Rental Agreements Act (RRAA) says you have to give a full rental period's notice. For example: If you pay rent monthly, you must give your landlord notice at least one month before you move.]
[00:00:24 Text: It's always best to give your landlord written notice of action you plan to take. It can help avoid misunderstandings. Keep a copy for yourself. If you want to leave before a landlord's termination date or leave at the end of your rental agreement, give the landlord notice.]
[00:00:34 Text: Special rule for Burlington: If your rental agreement doesn't cover how much notice you have to give before you move out, you need to give two full rental periods for notice. This means if you pay for rent each month, you must give your landlord notice at least two months before you move out.]
