North Dakota landlords must make reasonable steps to try and re-rent their units after their tenant breaks their lease. This helps the loss in tenancy income for a landlord. So, once your tenant moves out, you cannot just sit back and wait until the lease ends and then sue the tenant for all unpaid rent.
You could be charged with illegal eviction (a criminal offence) and breach of the tenancy contract (a civil offence) if your actions prevent them from doing this. It is advisable to seek expert advice before doing anything that puts you at legal risk.
If you are unsure about claiming that a tenant has surrendered the property you can place an Abandonment Notice on the door of the property. This Notice needs to advise that the property has been deemed as abandoned and give a time say five days after which the locks will be changed if no contact is received.
An abandonment notice is a written statement that must be displayed in a prominent, accessible position on the property informing the tenant that the locks have been changed and where to find a replacement key if they wish to return.

Failure to respond to a tenant abandonment notice If you still haven't heard from any of the interested parties explaining whether the property has been abandoned or not, you must issue a third warning. You must serve this notice at least 6 days before the period of 8 weeks has expired.
An abandonment notice has no legal standing and does not end a tenancy. If a tenant in this situation returns to the property after a lengthy absence, for example a long holiday or a period in hospital, to find that it has been repossessed by the landlord this may amount to an illegal eviction.
