What a valid Connecticut lease non-renewal / termination notice includes

  • • Full names of all tenants and the rental property address
  • • The landlord’s name and mailing address
  • • The exact termination date by which the tenant must vacate
  • • Service at least 3 days before the effective date (Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47a-23)
  • • A certificate of service recording how and when the notice was delivered — courts routinely ask for this

NoticeKit generates all of the above, computes your actual notice period, and warns you — citing Conn. Gen. Stat. § 47a-23 — if your dates fall short of the Connecticut minimum.
