Well, technically, it's impossible. A tenancy is either a month-to-month tenanccy at will, or a lease for a term.
With a tenancy-at-will, either party can cancel with a full month notice. With a lease, the contract runs for a set period, usually a year. Some leases renew themselves automatically if notice to terminate is not given. Others just terminate naturally.
No, without a written lease, the landlord can only evict the same as a month to month lease agreement (30 days) but the protections to the tenant and landlord are not stated.
Some agreements are set up that way. After our lease was up, we were month to month without signing another lease.
If the lease has expired and the co-signer has NOT signed the month-to-month agreement, the co-signer should be off the hook.
If the lease is month to month, the landlord just has to give you a month notice and you are gone. If there is a lease that is still in effect, the landlord is responsible for costs that you incurred as a result of the breach of the lease.
Yes, did you expect it would be free. You get to pay the whole month and remainder of the lease too.

No. Generally there is either a lease or a tenancy at will, which is a month-to-month tenancy. If you have a lease for a period of time and that period is up, the rental agreement automatically converts to a month-to-month agreement, unless you have an agreement on a new lease period.
Yes, assuming the tenant is given proper notice, which on a month to month lease is typically 30 days.
both parties if the lease changes from written to verbal, month to month.

only with the permission of the landlord in writing
No.
It can go either way, depending on what the landlord wants. If they want you to sign another lease, they can require you to do so if you wish to continue living there. In absence of another lease, you are considered to be on "month to month" under the same terms as the original lease.
Oddly enough, it depends on the term of the lease. If it's a month-to-month tenancy then yes, he can. If not, the lease is effective at time of signing and may not be changed without mutual consent.
No. Once the lease has been fufilled and you then go to a month by month tenancy, you are no longer bound by the old lease. BUT, your landlord may try to impose some of the standards that were included in the lease, like for example, no pets. Many people, after the lease has been completed and they go on to a month to month tenancy, try to get animals, as they are no longer under their lease. I have seen this stipulation carried over in some cases still from the lease as "general property" rules when challenged in a court. Landlord claimed his rental property was "pet free" no matter what type of tenancy you had. But basically, you are no longer bound by that lease and the stipulations in it.
It depends on your circumstances
I feel uncomfortable with a month to month lease. I originally signed a six month lease and my Landlord refuses to resign a lease. Is there any action I could take, here in WI.?
