FAQ
In Colorado, evictions are sometimes referred to as forcible entry & detainer (FED). Before you can file for eviction, you must generally provide 10 days' notice (increased from 3 days prior) for tenants to correct a deficiency or leave the property, except in certain circumstances.
State law regulates several rent-related issues, including late and bounced-check fees, the amount of notice (at least 45 days in Nevada) landlords must give tenants to raise the rent, and how much time (five days in Nevada) a tenant has to pay overdue rent or move before a landlord can file for eviction.
No Cause Notices Under Nevada law, NRS 40.251, the landlord can serve a No Cause Eviction Notice after your lease has expired. This Notice does not have to provide you with any reason for the eviction. If you rent by the week, the landlord must serve a 7 day notice.
Pay any delinquent rent that is due to the landlord within the allotted time of the notice. Move out of the premises within the allotted time of the notice. File an answer with the judicial court. File a motion to stay with the court.
Nevada Revised Statutes require a seven-day notice to the tenant, instructing the tenant to either pay the rent or "quit" (leave) the rental property. To evict a tenant for nonpayment of rent, the landlord must "serve" (deliver) a Seven-Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit to the tenant.
A no-cause eviction is when a tenant hasn't done anything wrong and the landlord does not want to renew a lease. A landlord cannot use a no-cause eviction before a lease is up. Currently, property owners have to give tenants a 30-days notice for normal renters.
For some landlords and property managers, a written email with all of the necessary information will do the trick. Keep your written notice simple and polite. Your notice to vacate letter is not the place to raise complaints or settle past issues with your landlord, property manager, or leasing staff.
