Notice to Vacate Letter from Landlord to Tenant: Free Template + 3 Checks Before You Send

Before you send a notice to vacate for non-payment of rent, check one date. Get it wrong and you could have to start over.

The 3 checks

  1. Days of notice your state requires. It varies by state (and sometimes city). Check yours, or ask an attorney. This is a template, not legal advice.
  2. The exact amount owed and the date it was due.
  3. The date and the way you served it (for example, certified mail with return receipt).

Where the template lives

In Property Manager Cloud: Documents → My Letters & Forms → Add Letter → Notice to Vacate for Non-Payment of Rent. The tenant's name and the property fill in from the lease, and the certified-mail line is already at the bottom.

Fill the blank — and add what the template leaves out

Fill in the number of days (after checking your state's rule). Then add a line with the exact amount owed and the date it was due. Save it once and it's ready to reuse.

What comes before this letter

Our late-rent agent sends a friendly reminder, then a firmer one, then hands the case to a person. It never sends a legal notice — those always stay with you. Get the reminder templates: comment RENT on the video or go to upnexs.com/late-rent.
