ONCE AGAIN.. Check Costa County law...I believe there MIGHT be something about 60 days notice..either that or it sure is referenced a lot on web sites for that county for some reason. If not LOCAL written law, then yes you can only require THIRTY days from the tenant per STATE law. Your 12.50 per day won't hold up in court for more than a few days FYI so be sure to serve pay/quits on the same day and don't include the late fees obviously in any claims. I still think you'd be better off changing late fee inception date to the 4th AND serve pay/quit also at that time. And as far as late charges vs when rent is late, all depends on the EXACT wording of the written agreement you are using AND state/local laws. And do NOT try to get more than 30 days from the tenant. You won't be able to enforce it unless it is WRITTEN LAW in your city/county...please check that again by calling a local large LL association and ask specifically about your city/county.
