FAQ
In Michigan, the landlord must give the tenant at least 7 days' notice before filing to evict for non-payment of rent, for causing damage to the home, or for creating a health hazard.
In the state of Michigan, if tenants hold over, or stay in the rental unit after the rental term has expired, then the landlord may be required to give tenants notice before evicting them. This can include tenants without a written lease and week-to-week and month-to-month tenants.
A notice to quit is the notice often referred to as "eviction", given by a landlord to a tenant to leave the premises either by a certain date (usually 30 days) or to pay overdue rent or correct some other default ( pets, damage to premises, too many roommates, using the property for illegal purposes, etc.)
A landlord starts an eviction case by filing a summons and complaint with your local district court. A copy of your lease, a copy of the demand for possession that the landlord served on you, and a certificate of service stating how the landlord served you must be attached to the summons and complaint.
When the landlord serves an eviction notice in this situation, you simply have three days to move out. A tenant can never cancel this type of eviction notice. However, the landlord can. You would have to negotiate with the landlord and meet whatever terms he requires for giving you permission so stay.
Putting all this together, you can see that even if the tenant does not show up to contest the eviction hearing, it will take an absolute minimum of four weeks to get an eviction in Michigan. In reality, an official eviction is likely to take longer, in the region of six to eight weeks.
Once a notice to quit expires, there is no longer a landlord and tenancy relationship. By law, even though he is no longer regarded as a tenant to the landlord, the tenant is still expected to pay the rent he owes to the landlord whether he has been given a notice to quit or not.
Putting all this together, you can see that even if the tenant does not show up to contest the eviction hearing, it will take an absolute minimum of four weeks to get an eviction in Michigan. In reality, an official eviction is likely to take longer, in the region of six to eight weeks.
Michigan has an expedited legal process for eviction called summary proceedings. It enables eviction hearings to be scheduled very quickly after the landlord first makes the filing in court. Landlords cannot evict a tenant in Michigan without a court order.
Eviction is the legal process of making a tenant move out of a rental home. In Michigan, the law allows for faster access to court and a quicker resolution in an eviction case than a lawsuit would usually take. It's illegal for a landlord to evict you without going to court and getting an eviction order first.
