They can give no notice - they just don't get their deposit back. \n\nThe purpose of the deposit is to cover the costs you that will be incurred as a result of the short notice vacancy.

This is not a simple question - if you live in the USA, especially. There are laws that cover Security Deposits and Fair Housing Guidelines and to ensure that you have no problems in the future, you need to comply with the Fair Housing law(s) of your State\n\nBoth Landlor and Tenants have rights under this law.\n\nYour tenant, for example, has the right to request/expect (and should be done) that the landlord conduct a walk-through of the rental unit time (1 or 2 weeks, depends on your laws and contract) prior to the official termination of the tenancy contract.  It is thru the walk-thru that you tell the renter if you will withhold any of his/her deposit  if repairs or cleaning are not performed by tenant.  After removing all personal property, the tenant can again request a final walk-thru wiht the landor to ensure thatll obligations have been fulfilled.  Accdg to your contract and laws, you have a certain number of days after vacating the place the landlord (you) has to  mail the renter the deposit or an itemized statement of any deductions taken out y the landlord.  If more than a certain amount of witholding is kept (limits by State law) by the landlord, you are required to accompany the itemization with copies of the receipts and documents showing the charges deducted.  There are other 'time limitations' but again depends on the State.I believe, but I can't remember, that the tenant can waive receipt of these documents.  There is other little things that you need to ensure you do to ensure that this tenant doesn't come back and bite you in small claims court.\n\nThe Letter can be simple:\n\nLetter to (legal/full name of tenant as in contract) and address he provides you.\n\nSubject: describe here the rental property (full legal address, unit number and renter name)-Rental Dates to-from\n\nDear Mr XXXX\n\nOn date you notified me that you would vacate the xxxxxxxx property.  We inspected (if you did) the xxxxx on date and xxxxxx date.  \n\nNo damages where found or damages where found as follows\n\nand consequently repairs had to be made for a total cost of $$ receipts and description of work done are enclosed.\n\nFinal walk thru was made on xxxx. This letter confirms that All your personal property has been removed from the property.\n\nSincerely,\n\nyour name\naddress\n\n\n____________\nLetter received by (name of tenant and date)  \n\nnote: make sure that you have the tenant sign receipt of letter and date it.

Yes everday before you leave the property

The 10 day notice of eviction is standard, but no, he cannot make you leave.  He has to post a 30 day notice and go to court.  When you get to court, sometimes the judge will give you a longer amount of time, but often will not.  Your landlord cannot allow others to harass you in any way.  Please see a housing attorney, you can probably speak to someone for free at least for the first time, then they have court appointed attorneys you may be able to work with.  I used to manage apartments, that's how I know these things.  Good Luck!

If you are in the US then you are a legal tenant and the maintenance work you do is your rent payment.  The landlord must give you reasonable notice before entering your apartment except in the event of an emergency such as a fire or flood.\n\nThe landlord must give you notice before eviction and if you don't move out by the notice date the landlord would have to file a lawsuit for eviction to get you out.\n\nGo to http://realestate.findlaw.com/tenant to read about your rights and then click on the Resources link to get the details for your state.

If your roommate gave you a 30 day notice 10/22 she is still responsible for rent thru 11/22. She is still considered a tenant until the 22 you can be nice and pro rate the rent for the 22 days.  Please do not throw her stuff to the curb, you would be responsible for it if it went to court.  Good Luck KG

He may have no choice, meaning that the tenant currently occupying the unit apparently has not left.  This actually happens more than you'd think.  To be able to force the tenant out, the landlord would have to evict and get restitution of the premises from a court order.  Then he'd have to make it ready for you as well.\n\nThat being said, the landlord should be prepared to address the fact that he cannot meet his contract terms (the move-in date).  No doubt your rent should be pro-rated for the days you can't be in the unit.  However, you might be able to negotiate an even better deal, and if YOUR landlord doesn't allow you to stay (see my comment above), you are at risk of potential court action and a negative landlord reference.  You should be compensated, perhaps in a small way, for that.

State?\n\nI am sure that would vary from state to state.\n\nBut most generally Eviction is a process through a court therefor there would be no such thing as a verbal notice.\n\nYou don't have to get out until a court says so, I have defied verbal evictions and made them go to court twice!\n\nThis was in Indiana.

Check your lease terms. I am sure that your landlord and manager would understand. Don't forget to give a proper notice in advance.

You have the right to leave the apartment, that's about it.  With no lease, if you piss the landlord off, he probably will just send you packing.

Technically, yes.  But if you needed a few additional days... what are they going to do... evict you.\n\nIf you needed to stay until May 10th, I'd tell them on the 3rd that you will be there till the 10th and pay them a few extra dollars rent (per diem).\n\nThere really is nothing that they can do.  Even if they were to file for an eviction for a holdover lease, the court date would be after a little time.  Even if you went to court and were evicted, you'd still have a few days to vacate.\n\nHope this helps.

Read the small print where it indicates what options or reasons that may arise to allow to opt out of your lease.  Also is the lease legal? There may be parts of it that may not be legal.  Is there rent control in your area? In rent control areas, some Cities require leases to have only a 30 day termination notice.\n\nRemember a leases works both ways, how would you fell if the landlord / manager wanted you out soon after you moved in?

Having a real estate liscence and knowing the landlord tenant laws considering my family's business is in rental properties, I assure you that for being two days late it will be impossible for the landlord to evict you... On the 5th she can give you a 7Day note which will tell you that you have seven days to pay in full or she will start court proceedings, and those last usually two weeks after that.  It is impossible for a lnadlord to evict a tenant within two days.  I've had to evict people before for not paying rent at all, and with no intentions of paying it and it took til the 26th of that month before the authorities will come to evict.  This I can guarantee, because I've done evictions in FL, IL, AZ, NM, and TX... Impossible to go through the court for a proper eviction in less than two weeks, and the court will always give you a chance to pay it and stay

Typically you have to give one "period" notice if there is no formal contract. If you paid by the week then you need to give a weeks notice. If by the month, then unfortunately you need to give a months notice.\n\nYou don't actually "lose a deposit". What happens is that it goes to pay the number of days you did not give a notice. If there is money left over then you get it back. If say you gave a 10 day notice then you would only owe 20 days. \n\nMost likely there won't be much left though, if any. \n\nIf there is nothing left then all you can do is chalk it up to experience.

What you put in the letter will depend upon the laws of the city and/or state where you live.\n\nDo your tenants have a lease?  If so, you can write advising them that the lease will not be renewed.  \n\nIf your tenants do not have a lease, then you write advising them that the premises will no longer be available after a set date -  30 or 60 days.\n\nIf your tenants are in violation of the lease, then you need to write a letter citing the violations and then you need to begin eviction proceedings. In most states this process can take between two and six months.

I used to be a property manager and I too would sent out 3 day notices, but until a court has released eviction papers, they can't seize your property, you should be calling them up and letting them know when you plan to pay.  This is normally accepted so long as it's not happening constantly.  Good luck.

30 days prior to your lease or rental agreement is over. If you don't pay, you'll get evicted. Just inform your landlord you're moving out unless they can lower your rent. \n\nThis only applies to when your lease or rental agreement is going to expire in 30 days. If you're in a middle of a lease, they cannot raise your rent. E-mail me if you have any questions.\n\nRegards
