This bill amends existing law regarding eviction notices for at-will tenancies by increasing the required notice period from 30 days to 60 days. Specifically, it modifies RSA 540:3, II to state that landlords must provide tenants with at least 60 days' notice before eviction, except in certain circumstances where a 7-day notice is still deemed sufficient. The specific circumstances that allow for a shorter notice period are outlined in RSA 540:2, II(a), (b), (d), or (h).

The bill aims to provide tenants with greater security and time to prepare for potential eviction, reflecting a shift towards more tenant-friendly policies. The new legal language replaces the previous 30-day notice requirement with a 60-day notice, thereby enhancing the protections afforded to tenants in at-will tenancies. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
