North Carolina Eviction Laws
In North Carolina, the first step in the eviction process is issuing a Notice to the Tenant to notify them of the reason for eviction and give them time to cure the issue or vacate the property.
The notice period for nonpayment of rent is 10 days. The Tenant has 10 days to pay rent or vacate the property. When a Tenant is behind on rent, the Landlord should use the North Carolina 10-Day Notice to Quit for Noncompliance.
If the Landlord wants to initiate an eviction because of non-compliance with the Lease Agreement, there is no requirement to allow the Tenant to cure the Lease violation. The Landlord may issue an Immediate Notice to Quit for Non-Compliance.
However, with some types of Lease violations, Landlords prefer to give the Tenant the option to cure the breach. This can help avoid disputes and lead to better outcomes for both parties.
Customize this form if you want to give your Tenant the option to cure a Lease violation.
