The first step is the formal notice. Under New Mexico law, you need to serve a 30-Day Notice to Vacate. See NMSA § 47-8-37(B).
Purpose: Terminates a month-to-month tenancy without needing to state a reason.
Requirements:
- Must be in writing.
- Must give the tenant at least 30 days’ notice before the intended termination date.
- Delivery methods include:
- Hand delivery
- Posting on the door plus mailing with a certificate of mailing
- First-class mail with a certificate of mailing

I understand how challenging it can be to deal with an ex-partner in a situation like this. How long has the person been living in your property without paying rent or utilities?
4 years

Have you already started any formal eviction process, or are you looking for guidance on how to begin?

Is there anything else the Landlord-Tenant Lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured they’ll be able to help with your eviction process.
No

- What city and state is the property located in?
- Do you have a written lease agreement?
- Have you served an eviction notice in writing yet?
Albuquerque, New Mexico. There has never been a lease. I paid for everything. No eviction notice yet. I want to know what the process is for my situation before I act.

Thank you. I will create a 30-day eviction notice and hand-deliver it since she is living in my house.
