Without a written lease you have a "Month to Month" tenancy.

I'm stuck as to what to do in my current situation.
My husband and I moved into our duplex home in Feb 2015
We paid the security deposit and the first month's rent up front.
All we want is to move out and get our security deposit back.
What can we do?

Pay the rent you agreed to for your time there.
When ready to leave ...give the Landlord a WRITTEN notice that you'll be out.
Start packing and cleaning and be out when you said.
In some areas that notice is the same 30 days like the rent payment.
In some areas... it's shorter. Both ways.

If you're ready to go soon...
today (3/31) would be an ideal time to give notice.
Do that in person with a APRIL rent check in your hand.
ASK him how/when you can expect to get your SD returned.
When you get a satisfactory answer... pay the April rent.
