How to Evict a Tenant in Michigan
A landlord who owns rental property in Michigan must follow Michigan’s landlord-tenant law when handling the eviction of a tenant. In order to begin the eviction process, the landlord must serve the tenant with legal notice advising the tenant of the reason the tenant must move out of the rental property and the deadline for doing so.
The only manner in which a Michigan landlord can legally evict a residential tenant is by following the Michigan eviction process, which involves notice before a court action can be initiated. The Michigan eviction process permits a landlord to evict a tenant for nonpayment of rent, for a material violation of the lease or for a major health hazard.
