Starting point only. Verify your state's exact notice period and delivery method before you serve this on a tenant.

How it works

Choose the reason (non-payment, lease violation, or no-cause), enter the tenant name and property address, and set the cure or vacate period. The generator produces a formatted notice. Verify your state's required notice days before serving the document.

Notice periods are set by state law. Using the wrong number of days can void the entire eviction and force you to start the process over.

How many days' notice does an eviction require?

The written notice period before a landlord can file for eviction is set by state law and by the reason for the notice, commonly ranging from about 3 to 14 days for non-payment of rent, with longer periods often required for no-cause or lease-violation notices. This generator formats a pay-or-quit, cure-or-quit, or vacate notice for any state, but it does not know your state's exact required day count or delivery method; both vary by state and must be confirmed before serving the notice. Using the wrong number of days, or the wrong delivery method (personal service, posting, or certified mail), can void the notice and force the eviction case to start over. Fill in the tenant name, address, reason, and days above, then verify your state's current landlord-tenant statute or consult a local attorney before relying on the document.

Good to know

Common questions landlords ask

How many days must I give?

It varies by state and by reason. Non-payment notices commonly run 3 to 14 days; lease-violation and no-cause notices are often longer. Verify your state's specific rule before serving.

Does this start the eviction?

No. It is the required pre-eviction notice. If the tenant does not comply within the notice period, the landlord may then file in court to begin formal eviction proceedings.

How must I deliver it?

Each state specifies how the notice must be delivered: personal service, posting at the door, certified mail, or some combination. The method matters; using the wrong one can invalidate the notice.

Is this legal advice?

No. Eviction law is procedurally specific. For anything contested or complicated, consult a landlord-tenant attorney in your state.
