When there is no lease, how much notice should a landlord give a tenant notification that they must leave?
When there is no lease, how much notice should a landlord give a tenant notification that they must vacate a building? The tenant has been in this building for about 6 years but never wanted to sign a lease. I now have another company that wants to move in which will work out better for us in the long term.

If there is no lease, the "default" is that you have a month-to-month tenancy. That means landlord has to give you 30 days to leave, and you have to give him 30 days as well (if you want your security deposit back). I'm pretty sure that's true in every state.


Bill A
30 days or one month

Despite there being a lack of any type of legal agreement (which can severely hurt your chances of being reimbursed for damages incurred from these tenants) since you've been accepting payment from them, you are legally obligated to provide them with at least 30 days to move out.

If you *haven't* been accepting rent money from them, they can claim squatters rights and you may be out of luck.


PS: You don't have to obtain a court order for this. If, by the end of the 30th day after you've given the eviction notice to your tenant, they've still not vacated the premisis, you have legal authority to remove all belongings from the property and seize the premisis.

30 days at the minimum.

In this community it is 30 days. It will cost $1500 to evict them if not out in 30 days. It might be cheaper to give them a rebate if they are out. My last landlord ( brother) paid for my moving truck.

Well, from a humanitarian point of view, I would give the person a month, with a possible extension for another 2-3 weeks if necessary. Unless they don't pay the rent, then I think you can do it immediately. Let me tell you, it is one of the WORST possible things to happen to a person to know that they could be homeless shortly. I bet it would account for many suicides!

Re read the rental agreement that you signed with the present tenant. Most rental agreement carry the clause that says to an effect "when this agreement expire the lease shall continue on a month to month base, and can be void by either party with due notice."

Answer: 30 days.

That is really a state by state thing, the normis 30 day Notice to Evict, but I do not think you are being fair to the tennant. Your reasons are goofy. Tennant is good, has been for 6 years, I do not see a problem. But it is your property and you can almost do whatever you wish with it. Contact your attorney, the courts and then start procedures.


NH Realtor
It is a tenant a will or month to month so 30 days notice.


$1200 mistake
Even without a written lease contract, the tenant has rights. Verbal agreements can be enforced; but, may be difficult to prove. Standard notice would probably be 30 days; however, you may encounter bigger problems if they don't agree to leave on your terms. Eviction processes can be costly and time consuming. Check with your local Housing Authority (the phone call will be free vs. contacting a lawyer) and ask what landlord/tenant laws may govern your decision keeping in mind that there is no written contract, only verbal. Your tenants may put up a fight if they have been there 6 years and refused to execute a lease agreement. You may need to put them on written notice, indicating that the term of the lease is month-to-month (you can pick up standard lease agreements at a local stationery store) and that by not signing the agreement, they are not exempt from its provisions. If you accept rent from the tenant for another month, you are pretty much agreeing to letting them stay another month. That would be the expectation that you set up. Anyhow, get the facts on the laws that apply to you locally by making some phone calls. Find out what your options are if they don't move willingly. Also find out what their recourses may be and prepared to fight if you must. You must be informed to make the proper decisions.


Mahal
Depends on the country you're living in. In the US, I think 30 days is all you're liable to give.

(If you have disabled tennants, you may want to get some advice from a real estate attourney. You could have a helluvamess if you do it wrong.)

By Law the Landlord has to go to Eviction Court to remove the tenant. It has to be filled with the court & a Balef (can't spell it) has to be their to remonve your tings from the property. The Landlord CANNOT touch your things by law.,

A landlord should give at least 60 days notice to the tenant, as this is what the tenant would give the landlord. With first and last months rent, they would pay the month then give notice that they are leaving thus giving them the last month for free, which they gave from the beginning. So I would say you should give the tenant 60 days notice to be fair, as that would be what you would expect as the landlord. Hope this helps.
