Under K.S.A. 58-2570, either party may end a month-to-month tenancy with at least 30 days' written notice effective on a rent-paying date, or a week-to-week tenancy with 7 days' notice. Military servicemembers may terminate on shorter notice under federal and state provisions.
K.S.A. 58-2570(b) allows a landlord or tenant to terminate a month-to-month tenancy "by a written notice given to the other party stating that the tenancy shall terminate upon a periodic rent-paying date not less than 30 days after the receipt of the notice." A week-to-week tenancy requires at least 7 days' written notice. Servicemembers receiving qualifying military orders may terminate with shorter notice. If a tenant willfully holds over in bad faith, the landlord may recover up to 1½ months' rent or 1½ times actual damages, whichever is greater. Fixed-term leases simply end at the agreed expiration date.
No specific statutory penalty for proper termination. A tenant who willfully holds over in bad faith may be liable for up to 1½ months' periodic rent or 1½ times the landlord's actual damages, whichever is greater (K.S.A. 58-2570).
