Eviction Notice

An eviction notice is a legal document issued by a landlord to a tenant, signaling the start of the eviction process. This notice is typically served when a tenant has violated terms of the lease agreement, such as failing to pay rent, causing significant damage to the property, engaging in illegal activities, or other breaches as outlined in the lease. The notice provides formal documentation that the landlord intends to reclaim possession of the property. The eviction notice specifies the reason for eviction and outlines the conditions under which the tenant must vacate the property. It includes a deadline by which the tenant must either rectify the violation (like paying overdue rent) or leave the premises. Failure to comply with the notice can lead to further legal action by the landlord, including court proceedings. The notice is a crucial step in the legal process of eviction, ensuring both parties are aware of their rights and the actions required.
