Some people consider Massachusetts a landlord-friendly state because it generally doesnt enforce rent control policies. However, the commonwealth tends to put a high number of restrictions on fees that landlords can charge their tenants.
In a tenancy-at-will the tenant pays the agreed-upon rent each month for an indefinite period of time. Either the landlord or the tenant can decide to end the tenancy by giving the other party notice either 30 days or one month before the due date of the next rent payment, whichever is longer.
Generally, a landlord cannot take possession of the rental property, physically remove the tenant or their personal property, or change the locks without going through a court. Depending on the reason for eviction, a landlord must provide the tenant either a 14-Day or 30-day Notice to Quit.
