Draw On Legal Pennsylvania Evictions Forms For Free

The typical eviction process in Pennsylvania will take between 35-45 days to remove the tenant but may involve another thirty days in managing the tenant's personal property. Few Landlord/Tenant Complaints make it all the way to eviction. Oftentimes the goal is to be an attention-getter to correct a lease violation.

If you do not move within 10 days after you receive the Order for Possession, the constable or sheriff's deputy will physically remove you from the property. If the Magisterial District Court grants a Money Judgment, you have 30 days to pay the judgment.

In Pennsylvania, the landlord can evict a tenant for violating the terms of the written lease agreement. The landlord must provide an eviction notice called a 15-Day Notice to Quit for at-will tenants and other tenants who have resided in the rental property for one year or less.

FYI The Notice to Quit does not have to be notarized, typed or on a special form in order for it to be a legal Notice to Quit. A LANDLORD CAN EVICT YOU FOR THREE REASONS: (1) YOU HAVE BREACHED YOUR LEASE; (2) YOU HAVE NOT PAID RENT; (3) THE LEASE TERM HAS ENDED.

Before a landlord can start filing an eviction, the landlord must give the tenant a 10-Day Notice to Quit. This eviction notice allows the tenant 10 days to settle any unpaid rent. The tenant must resolve their nonpayment of rent after the 10 days' notice or leave the rental premises.

No. Many Pennsylvania courts have said your landlord cannot evict you by self-help, meaning such things as padlocking your door, shutting off your utilities, using force to evict you, or using any eviction method other than going to court.
