Smart Eviction Compliance Contract
What it does:
Enforces eviction procedures on-chain by ensuring landlords follow legally required notice periods, grace windows, and compliance steps before a tenant can be evicted.
Why it matters:
Prevents unlawful or rushed evictions, protects tenant rights, and gives landlords a clear, auditable process that aligns with legal and ethical rental standards.
How it works:
-
Eviction rules (notice period, grace period) are defined at deployment
-
Landlord issues an eviction notice on-chain with a valid reason
-
Notice period countdown begins and is publicly visible
-
Tenant is given a grace window to resolve violations (pay rent, comply)
-
If resolved, eviction is automatically canceled
-
If unresolved after all deadlines, eviction is finalized on-chain
