Whats the difference between a notice to vacate and an eviction?

In most states, you are allowed to evict tenants without a motive, meaning a no-cause notice to vacate would be accepted. Certain state laws, such as Californian law, restrict tenant evictions, and a no-cause notice to vacate is not accepted until you give a specific reason.

How to stop a commercial eviction?

Many courts allow you to stop the eviction if you pay all rent owed, plus late fees and court costs, before the eviction date. Some jurisdictions will even stay the eviction (pause it) if you file a motion or an Order to Show Cause, which asks the judge to give you time to catch up.

How long do landlords have to collect unpaid rent?

The statute of limitations sets an effective deadline for landlords to pursue unpaid rent payments through the court system. The specific timeframe varies by state but generally ranges from 3 to 6 years. Depending on the state, the period could last up to 10 years.
