A Lease Termination Letter is the written notice used to formally end a tenancy on a set date. Landlords use it to end or not renew a lease, and tenants use it to give notice they are moving out. It records the property, the move-out date, and how the security deposit will be handled.

Questions
Can this replace a rent receipt book?+
Yes — generate and print receipts as needed instead of buying carbon-copy books. Each receipt is numbered by you, and the rent ledger keeps the running history the book's stubs used to.
What is a rent ledger?+
A rent ledger is a month-by-month record of rent charged, payments received, and the running balance for a tenancy. Landlords use it for taxes and bookkeeping; courts ask for it in eviction and security-deposit cases; tenants request it as proof of payment history.
Is this template really free?+
Yes — the generator, printing, and CSV download are free with no signup. A free account lets you save ledgers; Pro adds Excel export and unlimited saved ledgers for multiple properties.
Will this hold up in court?+
Courts want a clear, dated, month-by-month accounting — exactly what this produces: charges, payments, dates, and running balance in a clean layout. Pair it with your lease and payment evidence (bank records, receipts). For legal advice about your specific case, consult an attorney.
Can I record partial payments and late fees?+
Yes. Each month's row has the amount due, the amount actually paid, and a notes field for late fees or partial-payment details — the running balance updates automatically.
Can I use it for multiple tenants or properties?+
You can generate as many ledgers as you like. Pro accounts keep them saved and organized per property and tenant, so monthly updates take seconds.
Is my data private?+
The ledger is built in your browser — nothing is sent to our servers unless you save it to your account, and saved ledgers can be deleted anytime.
