Best Answer

The Tenant or the Landlord.

The Tenant may be in violation of the terms of the lease, and as such may be evicted. Or the Landlord may be At Fault for violating his terms of the lease.

Examples of Tenant violation include, but do not limit to: failure to pay rent on time, damage to the unit, unruly behavior or guests, or being arrested.

Examples of Landlord violation include, but do not limit to: failure to fix essential items in a timely manner, fellow tenants unruly without the Landlord's intervention, allowing known criminals to rent.

An eviction definitely! With a broken lease, you are still paying your landlord the rent that you own him and will probably be paying a fee to break the lease.

When there is no lease do I need a written eviction notice?

Wait, I misunderstood your question, do you want an eviction on your record? It will be harder to get another apartment in the future and it stays on your permanent record. So, If you are not paying rent and you have no lease and you think the eviction will give you some spare time you are right but it will screw up your future. You should talk to your landlord and do it amicably.


If you just recently got an eviction what are your chances on getting a place?

Get a new place before the final judgment hits the Court's public record, and your credit report. There are companies that search court records for eviction judgments, enter the info into a database and then charge fees to Landlords for checking a potential tenant's background. Be aware that even though you sign a new lease, if the new landlord should ever become aware that you had an eviction when you signed your lease, it may be grounds for them to terminate your lease, and you're out again. Read the lease or application for their policy on future knowledge of your previous eviction. And keep your fingers crossed they never find out. It will be on your record for 7-10 years, depending upon the state and eviction laws.
