As morbid as it may sound to think about, but leaseholders die everyday. When an apartment renter's death occurs, the tenancy continues until the lease term ends in many states. The responsibility then falls on the executor or administrator. Now if the lease was a month-to-month, the tenancy ends 30 days later after the last rent payment. A 30 or 60 day notice is not necessary. Items left in the suite are available to those parties who are listed on the leasing contract. If the person had no roommates, his or her next of kin who is listed on the emergency contact form will be notified. It will up to that person to take care of the decease's belongings. Check your lease and the state where you reside when it comes to tenant rights to learn more.
