Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Virginia

The termination clause of my lease agreement says, "If Agreement is renewed at the end of one full term of twelve (12) months, either party may terminate the Agreement any time by giving sixty (60) days written notice from the 1st of any given month." Since it says "from the 1st of any given month" it implies "after". So I can give written notice 60 days after I have left, is what it is saying. It should read "prior" or "on" the first of the month if they want the notice ahead of time. If it would help, there is also water damage to the apartment that was never fixed, it's cosmetic but it could ultimately mean an issue with the integrity of the building itself. Is this worth pursuing in court? I've already started negotiations on another lease.

Worth pursuing in court on whose behalf, the landlord or the tenant? From your question, Sir, I'm not sure which one are you.
