    Default Eviction of Mobile Home from Premises in North Carolina

    Salutations,
    I have a tenant that rents a lot (mobile home space) for a travel-trailer. Due to recent events (criminal behavior on the part of the tenant), we have decided it is in out best interest to cancel our rental agreement with this individual. This tenant is up-to-date on their rent, and upon last collection, verbally gave this tenant 30 days to collect all belongings and vacate the property as we were requesting its return. Now, I know NC Law allows our request for the return of rental property as a means of cancelling the rental agreement, but what I was wondering is what are the time stipulations I must give the tenant for removing his property and leaving? As we rent both mobile home spaces and mobile homes, I know the 2 differ. What kind of a process, time-wise am I looking at should I have to go through an eviction process to remove them from our property?

    Unlike a true mobile-home (manufactured house, 14x70, 16x80, etc.) that would require permits and arrangements to be made with a moving company, the tenant can simply connect this travel trailer to his truck and drive off into the proverbial sunset. Does this make a difference?

    Thanks in advance,

    An overview of the eviction process is provided here. ("Before the action can be filed, however, the landlord must have given written notice to the tenant that his right to possession has been terminated as a result of the breach (either #1 or #2, above).") In some states you can get a court-approved written notice form through the courts; if you can use an official form, it saves you the trouble of fashioning your own and eliminiates the possibility that you will make a mistake that invalidates the notice.

    In terms of the amount of notice which must be given,
    Quote Quoting NCGS § 42‑14. Notice to quit in certain tenancies.
    A tenancy from year to year may be terminated by a notice to quit given one month or more before the end of the current year of the tenancy; a tenancy from month to month by a like notice of seven days; a tenancy from week to week, of two days. Provided, however, where the tenancy involves only the rental of a space for a manufactured home as defined in G.S. 143‑143.9(6), a notice to quit must be given at least 60 days before the end of the current rental period, regardless of the term of the tenancy.
    You can review more North Carolina landlord-tenant statutes here.
