New York 30-Day Notice to Quit

New York Eviction Laws

Landlords must comply with all New York laws when bringing eviction proceedings against a Tenant. The first step in the process is providing the Tenant with a proper Notice. This is a 14-Day Notice for Non-payment of Rent or a 30-Day Notice for Noncompliance.

After issuing the required Notice, the Landlord must wait the specified number of days. This allows the Tenant to pay rent or cure the Lease violation. If the Tenant does not comply with the Notice, the Landlord may initiate eviction proceedings with the local court.
