How much notice is required to terminate a lease in Vermont?

Vermont requires 60 days written notice from either landlord or tenant to terminate a month-to-month rental agreement. For fixed-term leases, the end date serves as the termination date unless renewed.

What is the security deposit limit in Vermont?

The maximum security deposit in Vermont is No statutory maximum. Landlords must return the deposit (or itemized deductions) within the state-mandated return period.
