The New Mexico three (3) day notice to quit is an eviction notice that is served on tenants who have not paid their rent on time and in full. After receiving the notice to quit, the tenant is given three (3) days to pay the landlord the amount owed or vacate their rental unit. If the debt is paid as required, the tenant’s lease will not be terminated. In the event that the tenant does not pay the outstanding amount and remains on the property after the notice has expired, the landlord would have the right to file an eviction action in court to have them removed by law enforcement.
