For Property Managers

Under S.C. Code Ann. § 27-47-240, property owners and managers are expected to follow the notice procedures outlined in Section 27-40-240 when sending any required communications to tenants. Compliant operators typically use the delivery methods specified in that section—such as written notice delivered in person or by mail—and document the date and method of delivery. Keeping records of notices sent in conformance with § 27-40-240 is a standard practice for operators managing properties under Chapter 47.

For Tenants

S.C. Code Ann. § 27-47-240 means that any notice a landlord sends you under Chapter 47 must comply with the procedural requirements of Section 27-40-240, including how and when it is delivered. If a notice you received does not appear to meet those requirements, that procedural deficiency may be relevant to how the notice is evaluated. Tenants who have questions about whether a notice was properly given can consult a tenant-rights organization or review the requirements of Section 27-40-240 directly.
