Important distinctions

Rent review: the usual 60-day window is not a universal deadline for every complaint. Retaliation protections and eviction notices can require quicker action.

Security deposits: the office administers deposits, and time limits for deposit claims can differ for unusual termination events.

Eviction: only an authorized officer or judge can order enforced removal; a landlord notice alone is not an eviction order.
