Document background
The Letter of Intent to Vacate Apartment is a crucial document in Philippine residential tenancy relations, governed by the Rent Control Act and Civil Code of the Philippines. This document is typically used when a tenant needs to formally communicate their intention to end their lease agreement and vacate the premises. It serves as official documentation of the tenant's notice period, which is legally required in the Philippines, and helps protect both parties' interests during the lease termination process. The letter should include specific details about the property, planned vacancy date, and requests for security deposit return and final inspection. It's particularly important in urban areas where formal rental arrangements are common and local government units may have additional requirements for rental property vacation notices.
