Forms For Tenants/Defaulting Tenants

(those persons who have resided in your park more than 30 days, but less than nine months)

3 Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit *

This form is used for tenants who have not paid rent within the grace period allowed in your rental agreement. Unlawful detainer action can begin at the conclusion of the three (3) day period of the notice.

3 Day Notice to Perform Covenants *

This form is used for tenants who have not paid all items other than rent, such as: utilities, late charges, service charges, etc. Unlawful detainer action can begin at the conclusion of the three (3) day period of the notice.

30 Day Termination of Tenancy Notice *

This form should be used for tenants who are on a month to month tenancy (other than those who are late in paying rent) to whom you no longer wish to rent a space. It should be used whether or not you use the standard “Month to Month” Agreement described below or your own legally-approved form.

Order Form

Forms For Residents/Defaulting Residents

(those persons who have resided in your park for nine (9) months or more)

Combined Three (3) Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit & Sixty (60) Day Notice to Terminate Possession *

Pursuant to Civil Code Section 799.70(a), you must serve a Three Day Notice for non-payment of rent, but you must also serve a Sixty Day Notice to terminate the tenancy of a resident. This form combines both the three day notice and the sixty day notice, so that the times run concurrently. If the resident “cures” the notice (by paying the rent) within three days after he is served with this notice, the sixty day notice is discontinued. However, if he does not “cure” the three day notice within the allotted time, the sixty day termination of tenancy period has already started to run. At the conclusion of the sixty day period, your park can initiate an unlawful detainer action.

Combined Three (3) Day Notice to Perform Covenants or Quit & Sixty (60) Day Notice to Terminate Possession *

This form may be used along with the Three (3) Day Notice to Pay Rent or Quit & Sixty (60) Day Notice to Terminate Possession; however, on this form you should list all items other than rent, such as: utilities, late charges, service charges, etc.

Seven (7) Day Notice to Comply with Rules and Regulations *

This form is to be used to encourage residents to comply with your Rules and Regulations. See Civil Code Section 799.70(e).

Sixty (60) Day Notice to Terminate Possession *

This form should be used for residents when the park is terminating their tenancy for the reasons listed in Civil Code Section 799.70, subparts (b) through (g). Since termination of tenancy of a resident for other than non-payment of rent may be more difficult to enforce with an unlawful detainer action, you need to consult with your attorney before you prepare and serve this form.

Order Form

Rental Agreements

Month to Month Rental Agreement *

A standard rental agreement for use with monthly rentals. We strongly suggest that you do not take new tenants in under this agreement. This agreement is designed to be as versatile as possible and may contain some sections that do not apply to your park.

Tenants’ Personal and Credit Application

A standard form. A convenient way to check a prospective tenant’s credit prior to renting.

RV Storage Agreement *

Use this special NCR 2-part agreement to cover the storage of RVs in your storage area. Cites park’s non liability for damage and allows lien for unpaid storage rent.
