A notice to quit is used to notify tenants that they are being evicted or might be evicted if immediate action is not taken. They are most often used where tenants are behind on their rental payments, have violated their lease agreement, have committed a crime or violated the law (e.g. created a nuisance or unsafe condition on the property), or have continued to occupy the property after the term of the lease has expired (holdover tenants). You may also use a notice to quit in order to terminate a week-to-week, month-to-month, or other periodic tenancy. If the tenant is permitted to remedy the issue, the notice will inform the tenant that if they are able to do so within the stated notice period, they will not be evicted. It is best to try to provide tenants with an opportunity to remedy their violations when possible. In the event that eviction proceedings are initiated, this will show the judge that a good-faith attempt at reconciliation was made.
