In tenancy at will, who can terminate the lease?

Only the lessee
Only the landlord
Both parties can terminate at any time
Neither party can terminate

The correct answer is: Both parties can terminate at any time

In a tenancy at will, both the lessee (tenant) and the landlord have the right to terminate the lease agreement at any time. This type of tenancy allows for a flexible living arrangement without a fixed end date, meaning either party can decide to end the tenancy with appropriate notice, typically defined by state law. The ability for both parties to terminate the agreement is fundamental to the nature of a tenancy at will, which contrasts with other tenancies that may have fixed terms or require specific conditions to be met before termination can occur. This flexibility is what makes tenancy at will unique, allowing for a more straightforward, adaptable approach to rental arrangements.
