Though landlords must scrupulously respect tenants' rights, one thing they don't have to do is automatically renew tenant's leases. In fact, except for discriminatory or retaliatory reasons, landlords of rental properties can refuse to renew tenant leases as it suits them.

Most often, the lease won't permit assignment without the landlord's approval, but leases often state that the landlord cannot unreasonably withhold consent.
