RE: NOTICE TO VACATE
Dear Mr, Wert
or Cra-rent Occupant:
As you may be aware, this firm represents Chase Manhattan Mortgage Corporation in
connection with the above-captioned matter. As you may also be aware, Chase purchased the
property at a sale conducted by the Sheriff of Cumberland County on December 10, 2003.
Accordingly, Chase is now the record title owner of the property.
Our client has recently informed me that you remain on this property. The purpose of this
letter is to notify you that you must vacate the premises on or before fifteen (15) days from the date
of this letter. If you fail to vacate the premises on or before that date, Chase will institute formal
legal action to have you removed from the premises. I trust that such will not be necessary. If you
have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Very truly yours,
Kristine M. Anthou
