Hello!

I have a unit with two tenants who have become an issue for me. They are noisy, have verbal altercations (and there was one physical altercation involving a third party), have smoked in my unit despite it being a non-smoking property and do not maintain the grounds as they should. The police have been called to the property at least twice due to domestic disturbances. Their lease expires 10/31/2023 and I have decided not to renew. They pay their rent on time but they are not worth the headache factor and possible damage to my property. In my state, I am required to give them 15 day notice if their lease is a year or less or 30 days if the lease is over 2 years. They have only lived here for the past year. My lease states I will give them 30 day notice. Is it fine if I give them notice now (80 days in advance) or should I wait until the 30 day mark? In my mind, 80 days gives them enough time to find another place so I should tell them sooner rather than later and maximize the potential for them to actually leave. Some small part of me worries they will go renegade if I give them too much notice but I don't really think they will. I am not planning to evict them (at least not as of right now). I just don't want to deal with them for another year. Any thoughts on this?

Thanks,

Karen.
