Eviction notices for other grounds (lease violation, no-fault) in Virginia

For a material lease violation (or a violation of tenant duties affecting health and safety) that can be fixed, the landlord's written notice must say the lease ends on a date at least 30 days after receipt unless the breach is remedied within 21 days. For a breach that can't be fixed, the notice is at least 30 days. A criminal or willful act that threatens health or safety allows immediate termination.
