New York Eviction Notice

Before a landlord can file an eviction case in New York, the tenant must receive a written notice that states what is wrong and how long they have to fix it or move out. In New York, a landlord must generally give 14 days' notice to pay rent or quit under N.Y. Real Prop. Acts. Law 711(2).

This template generates a New York eviction notice for nonpayment of rent, a lease violation, or the end of the tenancy. You set the notice period so the document matches the current New York requirement for your situation.
