Louisiana HOA & Community Rules Addendum
This HOA & Community Rules Addendum is built with Louisiana as the governing state. These are the Louisiana landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.
Louisiana rules at a glance
| Notice to vacate (eviction) | 5 days — and the tenant can waive it in the leaseLa. C.C.P. art. 4701 |
|---|---|
| Notice to vacate | Once the tenant’s right of occupancy ends — for nonpayment, a breach, or expiration — the landlord must deliver a written notice giving at least 5 days to vacate before filing an eviction (La. C.C.P. art. 4701). |
| Landlord entry | No statutory notice period — set it in the lease |
Landlord entry & access
Louisiana has no statute setting a notice period for landlord entry. Instead, the landlord is bound to protect the tenant’s peaceful possession for the duration of the lease (La. Civ. Code art. 2682). Because the law is silent on timing, the entry clause in your lease — how much notice, when, and for what purposes — is what governs day to day.
Ending a Louisiana tenancy
A lease with no fixed term — including a fixed-term lease that has been “reconducted” — ends when either party gives notice (art. 2727). A fixed-term lease is reconducted if the tenant stays in possession for one week after the term ends without either side objecting, and a reconducted lease of a month or longer runs month to month (arts. 2721, 2723). Notice for a residence must be in writing (art. 2729), and the periods count backwards from the end of the rental period, not forwards from the date of notice.
| Term longer than a month | 30 calendar days before the end of the period |
|---|---|
| Month-to-month | 10 calendar days before the end of the month |
| Week or longer, but under a month | 5 calendar days before the end of the period |
| Shorter than a week | Any time before the period expires |
- Notice to vacate — Once the tenant’s right of occupancy ends — for nonpayment, a breach, or expiration — the landlord must deliver a written notice giving at least 5 days to vacate before filing an eviction (La. C.C.P. art. 4701).
- Waiver — A tenant may waive the 5-day notice in a written clause in the lease, letting the landlord file for eviction immediately once occupancy rights end (art. 4701).
- Domestic abuse & stalking — In buildings of six or more units (except owner-occupied buildings of ten or fewer units), a domestic-abuse victim who provides the required documentation may terminate the lease early, owing rent only through the termination date. Act 64 of 2026 (effective August 1, 2026) extends this to victims of stalking and cyberstalking (La. R.S. 9:3261.1).
- Military — An active-duty servicemember with qualifying orders may terminate under the federal SCRA (50 U.S.C. §3955).
