Notice / Letter from Landlord to Tenant to Vacate Rental Property

The rent agreement or leave & license agreement between the landlord and the tenant mostly provides for an advance notice period before leaving the property by the tenant. The intent of leaving can either be of the landlord or the tenant. Depending upon the circumstances, the tenant may serve the notice on the landlord intimating his intention to leave the rental property on a certain date in the future.

Likewise the landlord may also ask the tenant to vacate the property by serving an advance notice to the tenant giving the tenant sufficient time to vacate as per the agreed period of notice under the agreement. Sometimes the agreement also provides an alternative to the notice period, that is to say, instead of notice period, the tenant is asked to leave the property immediately (on a very short notice period viz. 48 hours) and the landlord pays a consideration to compensate for this short notice demand.

Format of notice from tenant to landlord to vacate the property is available here.

Sub.: Notice of vacating the rental property

Ref: Rental agreement dated ............... between (landlord name) and (tenant name)

Dear Mr. ..............,

I am writing to you to kindly request you to vacate the property at .............. rented to you by .........(date). As required under the captioned rent agreement between us, I am serving herewith 30 days advance notice for this purpose. The rent amount for the said coming period can either be adjusted from the security deposit amount given by you and available with me or you may pay the rent amount  first and after vacating the property collect the security deposit in full, as per your choice.

I feel sorry to ask you to leave the property but I have no other option but to do so. I have been receiving complaints from other flat members of the society and most of them are insisting on all owners of the flats to rent their property only to families having married couples, parents, kids, etc and not to rent property specifically to the bachelors as they tend to cause disturbances in the society.

I hope you do not take this notice disrespectfully. Trust you will understand my position. I look forward to your cooperation in this matter. I assure you if you need any help in finding a new flat - I will try best to help you out as far as possible.

Kind request to please oblige by the last date of notice as I will be looking for new tenants soon. Let me know if you have any queries in this regard.

Have a nice day / evening!

Thanking you,

Yours truly,
