Vermont Legal Requirements

In Vermont, residential lease agreements are governed by the Vermont Residential Rental Agreements Act. There is no statutory limit on the amount a landlord can charge for a security deposit. However, landlords must return the security deposit within 14 days after the tenant vacates the property. Vermont law requires a 60-day notice period for lease termination by either party for leases that are longer than one year. Landlords must provide specific disclosures, including lead-based paint hazards for properties built before 1978 and any known mold issues. Certain clauses, such as those waiving a tenant's right to a jury trial, are prohibited.
