no-fault eviction

Guiltless tenant removal

A no-fault eviction is when a landlord removes a tenant without claiming the tenant did anything wrong—no missed rent, no lease violations, no bad behavior.

The landlord simply wants the property back, often to sell it, renovate, or raise the rent with a new tenant.

They received a no-fault eviction notice giving them sixty days to leave.

In places without strong tenant protections, landlords can issue no-fault evictions with minimal justification.
