A North Carolina 10-Day Notice to Quit (Non-Payment of Rent) is a letter used to demand past-due rent from the tenant. The demand allows the tenant 10 days after the notice is made by the lessor/landlord for all past-due rent. If the tenant is unable to pay the amount in full within the allotted 10 days, they must move out of the premises. Failure to pay rent and vacate will result in an eviction case brought by the landlord.
Laws – N.C.G.S.A. § 42-3
