Notice to a tenant from ....

[Jack Deer]

Tenant caused extensive damage to front and back yards. Lease's normal wear and tear clause is specified to the office building only, and that the grounds will be returned in the same condition they were when the lease was first signed. The lease stipulates that any structures and fixtures must be removed by tenant.

The tenant did not respond to my letter requesting that he speak with me about the rehabilitation of the grounds and the removal of all construction materials. 



No renewal notice was received (30 days, as per lease). The lease expires in 10 days.



What kind of notice do I need to send him in regard to his responsibility to pay rent (new rate) until all material is removed and the property is suitable for leasing?

Hi Jack! It seems that you would need a Holdover notice.
