Notice to Quit
We purchased property in order to provide housing for a friend from out of state. We are only charging her $200/mo due to her circumstances of unemployable; she receives around $600 from the State. Is not on HUD list for Dauphin County. We can no longer afford to subsidise her in addition to her manic-depressive problems, the relationship has also become a mental burden for me.
We would like to put the property up for sale 1 Jan 2005. We intend to give as much notice as possible. Will her ‘condition’ have any negative repurcussions to our wanting the property vacated? Thank you. Of course, we are 1st time Landlords – and LAST time.
Re: Notice to Quit
If there is no written lease, her payments made monthly, make her a month to month tenant.Under 68 Pa.C.S. Sec. 250.501 15 days notice is required for person with a lease term less then a year or for an indefinite period of time. Talk to the person give her written notice to quit(Your legal obligation) as soon as possible and attempt to help her find other arrangments(Not your legal obligation but perhaps your moral obligation)
