By specifying "sending certified mail" (rather than confirming delivery by "return receipt") the legislation emphasizes that the mailbox rule applies because it is the sending by the tenant, not receipt by the owner, that TOPA requires if the notice is not made by hand. The choice is left to the tenant.
