What is a Notice to Quit?

A Notice to Quit is a document used in Nevada residential real estate law that signals to a tenant that they are required to leave the property they are renting. This notice may be issued to tenants who have broken their rental agreement, are behind on rent payments, or are tenants at will. According to the Nevada Revised Statutes, a Notice to Quit must provide at least five days’ notice to the tenant that they need to move out of the property. It must include the address of the rental property, the name of the tenant, the date of the notice, and a written explanation of why the tenant needs to leave. In some cases, the Notice to Quit also includes the amount of money owed by the tenant. After receiving a Notice to Quit, the tenant must move out of the rental property in the timeframe stated in the document, unless the tenant and the landlord have a written agreement that allows them to remain. If the tenant does not move out within the timeframe outlined in the Notice to Quit, legal action may be taken by the landlord.
