Provisional Notice of Cancellation (PNO)

Purpose:

A provisional notice of cancellation (PNO) is a notice given by a landlord to a tenant informing them that the landlord intends to cancel the lease and terminate occupancy. The PNO serves as a formal notification of the landlord’s intent and outlines the grounds for cancellation.

Form:

The PNO should be in writing and signed by the landlord. It should include the following information:

• Landlord’s name:
• Landlord’s address:
• Tenant’s name:
• Tenant’s address:
• Reason for cancellation:
• Date of cancellation:
• Notice period: (usually 30 days or as required by law)
• Fees and penalties: (e.g., early termination fee)

Procedure:

• The landlord must provide the PNO to the tenant in writing.
• The notice period must meet the requirements of the local law.
• The tenant has the right to receive a copy of the PNO.
• If the tenant disputes the cancellation, the landlord may have the right to resolve the issue through arbitration or mediation.

Additional Considerations:

• The PNO should be delivered in person or sent by certified mail.
• The landlord should provide the tenant with a copy of the PNO and any other required forms.
• The PNO should be clear and concise and explain the grounds for cancellation clearly.
• The landlord should be prepared to answer any questions or concerns the tenant may have about the cancellation.
