Eviction Notice Information:
An Eviction Notice is a letter used by a Landlord in order to notify the Tenant of either a lease violation, nonpayment of rent or that the lease will not be renewed.
In certain cases, the property owner or landlord may provide the tenant with a certain number of days to either fix the lease violation or pay the rental amount that is outstanding.
Typically, if the tenants fixes the lease violation or pays the rental amount due within the stated time period the lease will continue as before. However, if the tenant fails to either fix the violation or pay the rental amount then the landlord may file a suit for eviction.
The required amount for the notice time period will vary depending on the lease terms and provisions, as well as what the local laws state. If you are unsure as to the amount of time to provide, it is a good idea to consult the applicable local laws or to speak with a local attorney to determine the minimum notice amount of time you are legally required to provide the tenant. It is important to note that you cannot provide a shorter notice period than required by law or that is specified in the lease agreement.
Once the notice is filled out, it will need to be served upon the tenant. Usually, the notice can be served by delivering it to any adult tenant on the premises or by mail, depending on the terms and provisions of the lease.
