  1. Provide Tenant Notice or Demand for Rent or Possession
    Provide the tenant a Demand for Rent or Possession.

    Upon service or post of Demand tenant has 3 days to pay rent in full. The 3 days starts the day after you post the demand.

    • Notice can be provided by landlord or attorney
    • Make an effort to serve to tenant in person (no sneaking up & leaving on the door in the dead of night)
    • You may Post to the door if the tenant is not home or no one over 15 years of age is home
    • Mail a copy of the Demand to the tenant on the day it is served
    • Certified mail is not required as the Court will assume the mail was delivered
    • You must accept full payment if provided with-in the 3 days
    • Partial payment can be refused
    • If you usually allow rent to be deposited directly into your account notify the Tenant that this has been temporarily suspended (this keeps them from sneaking in a partial payment which may slow the eviction process)

  2. Hire an Attorney
    Hire an attorney to handle the eviction process and serve the initial notice.

    If you choose to serve the tenant the first notice yourself and the tenant fails to pay in full in the 3 day period, then hire an attorney to handle the eviction process from there on out.

  3. Bill Tenant for Legal Fees
    If the tenant pays in full in the 3 days no further action towards eviction need be pursued. Should you have acquired any legal fees while serving notice to Pay or Quit you may bill those back to the tenant.
