Yes, in Maine, a landlord can evict a tenant without a specific reason (“no cause”) if they are a “tenant at will” (no written lease or month-to-month), but they must provide a written 30-day notice to quit. If a written lease exists, they generally cannot evict for no reason until the term ends.
If there is no written lease agreement (a tenancy at will) or if a written lease has expired and isn’t renewed, the landlord can end the tenancy without giving a reason, but must give at least 30 days’ written notice before pursuing eviction in court.
