Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Virginia

terminating month to month lease in chesterfield va

I posted a thirty day pay or quit notice for failure to pay rent. I also posted a 30 day notice to terminate lease. Is posting sufficent to terminate the month to month lease? What if the tenant has not been home to see the posting? And, when the 30 day period has expired, at what point can you consider the belongings abandoned and get rid of them?

After you post your notice, file an unlawful detainer action if the tenant remains in the property. You will receive a writ of possession and the sheriff will remove the tenant.
