What’s an eviction notice?

[ad_1]

An eviction notice can be submitted by a tenant or landlord to indicate that someone is expected to leave a residence. It must include the names and address, date, and reason for leaving. Tenants can send a notice when their lease expires, while landlords usually send it when tenants violate the lease. It’s important to read and understand the notice, and tenants can ask for more information or request an extension if needed.

A notice of eviction is a formal statement that someone is expected to leave a residence. It can be submitted by a tenant, to indicate that he intends to leave by a set date, or it can be submitted by a landlord, to indicate that a tenant is expected to leave by a certain date. A number of people use pre-printed legal forms to write their communications, to ensure they comply with the law, although it can also take the form of a simple written letter.

Several pieces of information must be included in an eviction notice. The names of the tenants and the home’s address and unit number (if applicable) are typically at the top of the document, along with the landlord’s name and contact information. The notice is also dated and includes a date by which tenants are expected to leave. A 30 day notice is probably the most common, although 60 and 90 day notices can also be displayed. Discussions of any rent and security deposits might also be included, along with information about a move-in inspection and why the tenant is vacating the property.

A tenant usually sends a notice to vacate when his or her lease has expired and will not be extended. For example, if James Jones rents a house on May 1, 1900 and signs a lease for one year and does not want to continue vacating the house after that year, he will file a 30-day notice to vacate on April 1, 1901 to indicate that he plans to move on May 1, 1901 and does not wish to extend the lease. This serves as a formal legal notice, alerting the landlord that a tenant is leaving.

Landlords usually send a notice to vacate when a tenant has violated the terms of a lease, or when the lease will not be extended. Most landlords file 30 days notice and it could be the first step in the eviction process. When landlords file this document, they usually hope the tenants will comply, as evictions are time consuming and expensive as well as irritating to deal with. The reason for the request must be clearly stated in the decommitment notice.

When a person receives a vacancy notice, as a landlord or tenant, they should take the time to read it carefully. If the tenant is unclear about something in the notice, he should ask for more information. Tenants are not obligated to respond with a response indicating they have received the notice, although it may be polite to do so. Many people take the notice as an opportunity to schedule a post-move inspection, which should fall within 30 days of the move, and make sure the landlord is aware that any security deposit is due within 30 days. Tenants who feel that the notice period doesn’t give them enough time to move in should approach the landlord politely to ask if an extension is possible.
