An eviction notice, or a notice to quit, is a message or letter from a landlord describing a tenant’s breach of the lease agreement and asking them to cure the matter or move out of the property. Generally, an eviction notice may take two forms; curable and incurable. The latter requires the tenant to vacate immediately while the former gives them a window to fix the problem and maintain the tenancy.
Below are formats for the different eviction notice form types you may send to initiate the eviction process. Understanding them will ensure you send the proper notice and allow the tenant the appropriate time to respond. Please note that the terminology may differ from state to state.

These eviction notice letters cover the reasons for which you may legally evict a tenant from your property. If you’ll notice, each format identifies the tenant, mentions the lease agreement, describes the violation, and offers a possible solution (except the notice for illegal activity). Additionally, they always indicate the landlord’s intention to pursue legal action against the tenant.
Eviction notices begin but don’t complete the eviction process. It is also important to note that housing laws vary widely from state to state. Always consult your state housing laws when drafting a notice.
