Pennsylvania law only allows a landlord to evict you by going to court, usually before an MDJ. If you do not move out of your rental property voluntarily by the date indicated in an eviction notice, if one is required, the landlord can file an eviction Complaint with the MDJ.
If you dont pay your rent or move out within three days, the landlord can go to court to have you evicted. If that happens, someone will serve you with a court notice called an Unlawful Detainer. The Unlawful Detainer is a lawsuit to have you evicted.
Even if there is no written lease, landlords must follow state eviction laws for month-to-month or at-will tenancies. In these cases, the landlord must give proper notice: typically, 15 days if the tenant has lived there for a year or less, and 30 days if over a year.

10-Day Notice to Quit: If a tenant doesnt pay rent when its due, the landlord can give the tenant a 10-day notice to quit. This notice informs the tenant that because the tenant failed to pay rent, the tenant must move out of the rental unit within 10 days.

Reasons to Evict These are the most common reasons for eviction in Pennsylvania: Failing to Pay Rent: If a tenant falls behind on rent even by one day, the landlord can give the tenant a written ten-day Notice to Quit. If the tenant doesnt pay within those ten days, the landlord can start the eviction process.
Step 3 - Provide Proper Notice: Tenants and landlords must provide written notice according to the lease agreement or state requirements. Generally, a 30-day notice is standard unless the lease specifies otherwise.
If you do not pay within 10 days or file an Appeal and pay a bond if required, the landlord may request an Order for Possession. Court costs will go up if the landlord requests an Order for Possession, so it is best to pay as soon as possible.
