Document background
The Lease Termination Notice By Lessee is a crucial document in Australian tenancy law, used when a tenant wishes to formally end their lease agreement. This notice must comply with specific state-based legislation, such as the Residential Tenancies Act in the relevant state or territory. The document is required whether terminating at the end of a fixed-term lease, during a periodic tenancy, or in special circumstances allowing early termination. It must include specific details such as the property address, termination date, and tenant details, while ensuring compliance with statutory notice periods. The notice serves as legal evidence of the tenant's intention to vacate and initiates the process for ending the tenancy, arranging final inspections, and facilitating the return of any security deposit.
