Re: I need clarification by Katiekate (New York) on June 4, 2013 @08:53

                              
I would try to head off any possible problem with a friendly letter. Not email

In a friendly, chatty sort of way tell the landlord you would like to know the date that the lawn service should be turned off... They would like as much notice as possible, or would the landlord (or new tenants) want to just move the account into their names? If so, what date would that be?

You might then also mention that you have paid June, and the July rent was paid at move in as "last month" rent. You would expect a refund in the move out reconciliation .... This would be due 2 weeks after the new tenant moves in, because that move in would be the effective date of the termination of your lease.

Be sure to high light your new mailing address again.

Send it certified. You don't need the return receipt, just get the printout of the delivery status from the USPS web site using the tracking number Send a second copy via normal mail service.

Keeping it friendly, like discussing this with a friend will provide you with the vehicle to make your position known without making it an issue.
Of course the LL will do the right thing, you are trying to help him do it

Thank you Katiekate,
I am keeping it as light and friendly as possible, I am trying NOT to get my hubby involved because then, it will turn unfriendly I think, lol. I did ask for her to tell me when they move in so I don't have to pay for the lawn care, she said she would let me know, so, now that I have your advise in hand, I am getting ready to mail some things the movers packed accidentally that belong to that house {garage door opener and some use instructions of the dishwasher etc} so, I will add a short friendly letter too!
Thank you! Eloise
