The letter must be clear in stating the exact reason for the eviction. It must also state what further action(s) the landlord intends to take if the allotted time elapses on the notice. Keep the letter as brief as possible. Refrain from bubbly language that may confuse the intent of the notice, and stay to the point.
Be Honest. If you are asked about it on an application or in person, be truthful. Explain what happened that led to the eviction. If you're caught in a lie, it's almost guaranteed that a landlord won't rent to you.
The Notice must be in writing and include: The date the tenancy will end ("be terminated") Detailed reason(s) for the eviction. That if the tenant doesn't move out within 90 days the owner may start a court case to evict them and that they can give their side of the story then.
