7 days nonpayment notice.
Where URLTA applies, nonpayment requires a 7-day notice and lease violations a 14-day notice. Month-to-month tenancies end on 30 days' notice.
What this means for you: Deadlines depend on whether your locality adopted URLTA.
Your next step: Confirm local adoption of URLTA and respond to any notice promptly.
