Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in New Hampshire

''Reasonable Notice''

What is considered ''reasonable Notice'' under NH state law for a landlord to provide notice for entry in cases of no emergency?

And

Is there a specific amount of time required by law that a tenant needs to provide a landlord notice prior to moving without a valid lease agreement (expired)?

Re: ''Reasonable Notice''

It is difficult to respond with accuracy given the limited facts presented. I would need to review the lease to determine if it is a self-extending document. I would also need to know if the property is restricted or non-restricted under State law. However, as a general rule -- and it may or may not apply to your situation --- 30 days prior written notice is usually sufficient to terminate a tenancy at will. Shorter or longer periods may be appropriate under certain circumstances. You should hire an attorney to more fully advise you.
