South Dakota HOA & Community Rules Addendum

This HOA & Community Rules Addendum is built with South Dakota as the governing state. These are the South Dakota landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

South Dakota rules at a glance

South Dakota rules for an HOA & Community Rules Addendum
Nonpayment evictionNo pre-suit notice to quit since 2024; eviction action once rent is 3 days lateSDCL §21-16-1(4)
Nonpayment of rentA forcible entry and detainer action is available once rent is unpaid three days after it’s due (§21-16-1(4)). The former three-day notice to quit (§21-16-2) was repealed in 2024, so no pre-suit notice is required by statute — but if your lease promises one, you must give it.
Lease violationsA landlord may terminate before the end of the term if the tenant uses the premises contrary to the lease, or fails to make repairs they’re responsible for within a reasonable time after request (§43-32-18).
Landlord entryReasonable notice; 24 hours’ written notice presumed reasonableSDCL §43-32-32

Landlord entry & access

Except in an emergency or where it’s impracticable, a South Dakota landlord must give the tenant reasonable notice of the intent to enter and enter only at reasonable times. Twenty-four hours’ written notice is presumed reasonable unless the lease sets a different method or timing that both sides agreed to (SDCL §43-32-32).

The notice itself has required content: the date or dates of entry, a window of time during normal business hours, the purpose of the entry, and a way for the tenant to ask to reschedule (§43-32-32).

Ending a South Dakota tenancy

A lease ends at the expiration of its agreed term or by mutual consent (SDCL §43-32-22). For a tenancy with no fixed term, either party must give notice at least as long as the rental period itself, but not more than one month, or the hiring is presumed to renew (§43-32-15).

Notice to end a South Dakota periodic tenancy (SDCL §43-32-15)
Week-to-weekOne week
Month-to-monthOne month
Tenancy at will (landlord)At least 15 days (§43-8-8)
Tenancy at will — active-duty military householdTwo months, with limited exceptions (§43-8-8)
  • Nonpayment of rent — A forcible entry and detainer action is available once rent is unpaid three days after it’s due (§21-16-1(4)). The former three-day notice to quit (§21-16-2) was repealed in 2024, so no pre-suit notice is required by statute — but if your lease promises one, you must give it.
  • Lease violations — A landlord may terminate before the end of the term if the tenant uses the premises contrary to the lease, or fails to make repairs they’re responsible for within a reasonable time after request (§43-32-18).
  • Domestic abuse, sexual offenses & stalking — A tenant may terminate without an early-termination penalty by written notice citing fear of imminent danger, with a police report, protection order or health-care provider documentation from the past 30 days; the tenant owes no rent for the month after they vacate (§43-32-19.1).
  • Landlord default — A tenant may terminate early if the landlord fails, within a reasonable time after written request, to put the tenant in quiet possession or make required repairs, or if most of the premises is destroyed (§43-32-19).
