What can I be evicted for and what is the process?
A landlord may not evict you without prior written notice unless the tenant has waived their right to written notice in the leave for nonpayment of rent. If a landlord wants to evict you for violating you tenancy agreement, it must a violation of a specific lease provision and he or she must take action within six months of the violation. If your landlord serves you with a “Notice to Correct or Vacate,” document, indicating an intention to evict if you do not remedy the problem, you have 30 days to correct the violation.
You can also be evicted if the building you live in is scheduled for substantial renovations or alterations, or is to be demolished or no longer used as a housing property, in such cases; you have several rights as a tenant, including the right to be notified in advance, and the right to relocation assistance.
