Most leases are written for 12 months. There is AFAIK no evicition protection once the lease expires, or am I wrong? It seems to me that 12 months is the limit

Most leases are written for 12 months. There is AFAIK no evicition protection once the lease expires, or am I wrong? It seems to me that 12 months is the limit of the landlord's risk.
- gizmo686 5y agoLandlord/tenet law is highly location dependent. Around here (Maryland), landlords are required to offer leases up to 2 years (this might be a county law), although I suspect 12 month leases are still common. At the end of a lease, MD law requires the lease to default into a month-to-month lease. To kick a tenent out without cause, a landlord need only provide 30 days notice. However, if the tenent refuses to vacate, the landlord still needs to go through the eviction process.
