Lease Agreements in Utah

Utah landlord-tenant law is governed by Utah Code Ann. § 57-22-1 et seq. Utah is a landlord-friendly state with no cap on security deposits and a brief 3-day notice for non-payment evictions. Utah has no rent control — state law preempts local ordinances. Deposits must be returned within 30 days. Landlords must give 24 hours' notice before entry.
