Notice to Pay or Quit

If it's been at least five days since the rent was due, a property owner or manager may provide their tenant(s) with a notification, such as overdue invoice or a letter including the particular details; via USPS Certified Mail (no signature required) indicating that rent is past due. A Process Server may then begin making attempts to Serve the tenant(s) with a 14 Day Notice to Pay or Quit or other similar Landlord / Tenant (L&T) Notice.

Serving an eviction notice in Rochester and throughout all New York requires that the same third party individual make up to three (3) attempts, on three (3) different days, at three (3) different times of day, within a seven (7) day period.

USPS First Class and Certified Mail is included with no hidden fees, as are signed & notarized Affidavit of Service for up to three named tenants per address.
