Q: Hello If a resident gives a 60 day notice to move out 15 days beyond their lease end date, can they be charged a MTM fee
A:
It depends on the language of your lease agreement with your landlord.
Although MTM fees aren’t common in Texas, this would be a typical situation where such a fee would apply since you are holding over beyond the end of your lease term.
John Cucci Jr. agrees with this answer
A:
I'm assuming the MTM fee means month-to-month fee.
No matter when you get notice to vacate the place you rent, you have to pay for the time you occupy a rental place. Don't get caught up in legal names. Giving someone over 30 days notice to vacate is lawful in most instances.
I hope this answers your question.
Good Luck!
