Kansas notice to vacate rules

In Kansas, landlords and tenants must each give 30 days’ notice to end a month-to-month tenancy. For unpaid rent, the notice period is 3 days.

The rule

Landlord ends month-to-month
30 days
Tenant ends month-to-month
30 days
Week-to-week
7 days
Unpaid rent
3 days
Lease violation
14 days
Unpaid rent
3 days (three consecutive 24-hour periods) after written notice of nonpayment and intent to terminate; add 2 days if the notice is mailed.
Lease violations
Tenant has 14 days to remedy a material noncompliance, and the agreement ends no sooner than 30 days after notice; a similar later breach allows a 30-day notice without a cure right. Month-to-month notice must end on a rent-paying date; service members with military orders need give only 15 days.

Law: K.S.A. 58-2570, 58-2564
