How does a 3-day notice work?

Can I include a letter with a 3day notice?

• I'm having to write out a 3day notice to pay rent or quit. Is it also OK when I leave this to also include a letter to this loser tenant? I want to tell him I'm fed up with his games & either pay or get out. I'm suggesting he just move because I can easily get someone else in there. I want to include proof of what rents are going for in the area. He is paying $200.00 less & acting like a fool on top of it.This idiot moved a dog in without permission that has torn the place up, plus moved a girlfriend in who I didn't rent to. He has hung up stuff on the porch digging holes in the stucco. Since he has installed this stuff on the porch, can't I insist he leaves this to not tear the stucco up more & now leave holes? It's now actually become part of the property now.

• Answer:

  Keep things simple. There is no reason in the world to wire some contenteous letter. You can only use a 3 day notice if you are evicting over rent. If you are evicting over the animal or gf you have to use a "cure" notive, which can be anywhere between 5 days to 15 days, depending on your state. If you just want him out you use a 30 day notice. Just keep it at what you legally have to include, skip all the extra.
