Frequently asked questions

How many days does a Michigan landlord have to give before filing for unpaid rent?
Before filing an eviction for unpaid rent, a Michigan landlord must serve a 7-day demand for possession or notice to quit for nonpayment (Mich. Comp. Laws § 554.134(2)).
Is a late rent notice the same as an eviction notice?
No. A late rent notice is a reminder that rent is overdue. Before filing an eviction, a landlord usually must serve a specific statutory notice, such as a notice to pay rent or quit, in the form and time the state requires.
What is the difference between the Standard and Professional Late Rent Notice?
The Standard edition is a complete, state-aware Late Rent Notice for common situations. The Professional edition adds longer clause coverage, schedules, and optional modules for more complex matters. You can preview either edition free before you pay.
