How many days Notice do you GIVE tenants to MOVE OUT?

[Charlie Moore]

I KNOW it is different per state, I am asking you on a personal level, what you would do in this situation.

- I want the tenant to LEAVE. Lease is over December 8th. If I tell them now, that i Will not be renewing there lease, Then I can Guarantee you, that they will NOT be paying for their last month of rent, they will just simply hold the rent to put towards another place. Basically if i tell them before they pay me rent money, they will screw me over.

What would you do?

Should I collect rent on December 2nd and Then tell them right away that I need them gone within 15 days? Pennsylvania is 15 days.

I give them the minimum notice required. If they've already paid November rent, give them notice now. If they fail to pay the prorated rent for December, deduct it from their deposit.
