Missouri Month-to-Month Lease Agreement

Required Landlord Disclosures (3) 

At the time of lease signing, landlords in Missouri must provide the tenant with disclosures explaining critical property and landlord information.

These relevant disclosures for Missouri are:

1. Lead paint: Federal law requires landlords to inform tenants about the presence or knowledge of lead-based paint or lead-based paint hazards on all properties built before 1978.
2. Methamphetamine contamination: Missouri landlords must notify tenants if methamphetamine has been produced or stored on the property. (MRS § 441.236).

3. Landlord’s name and address: Landlords must clearly note the name and address of the person responsible for managing the rental property. (MRS § 535.185).

Note: TurboTenant provides these disclosures with every lease agreement.

Required Notice to Terminate Month-to-Month Agreement

Since month-to-month leases have no natural end date, each state has different rules around terminating them. Below, we list the amount of notice landlords and tenants must provide each other to terminate.

Required notice for landlord: 30 days’ notice.

Required notice for tenant: 30 days’ notice.

Rent Increase Laws

Month-to-month leases offer landlords more flexibility than fixed-term leases, especially regarding rent increases. Missouri does not have any rent control laws, so Missouri landlords can raise the rent as much as they see fit.

Missouri law requires landlords to give tenants at least 30 days’ notice before increasing the rent. However, landlords can raise the rent as often as they like as long as they provide proper notice.
