FAQ

An estate from period to period, or periodic tenancy, is a type of leasehold estate that automatically renews at the end of a specific period of time unless either party gives notice of termination.A tenancy at will is also known as a freehold estate.
As a general rule of thumb, if the lease is less than 90 years you should almost certainly try to extend it because: Properties with shorter leases are less valuable than ones with long leases (this is particularly true if leases are below 80 years)
Yes, a lease can automatically renew in California. If neither the tenant or the landlord give notice that they want to terminate the tenancy when the lease expires, the lease can be renewed.
Start the conversation. Know what your apartment is worth. Learn something, even one small thing, about the market that works in your favor. Show off what a great tenant you are! Try to extend your lease. Offer money up-front. Provide services for the home or building. Come up with some requests.
When a lease ends, a tenant may choose to move, continue to pay rent as a month-to-month tenant, or sign a new lease. If a tenant continues to pay rent after a lease ends, in most states the terms of the expired lease carry over into a month-to-month tenancy.
We recommend offering your tenant a lease renewal 90 days before the lease expires. You can offer in-person, send via email, or send a letter. The goal is to receive a reply within 30 days so that you have at least 60 days to find a new tenant if your current tenant declines the renewal offer.
Create Document. A lease extension addendum is a contract that further extends the term of an existing lease agreement. The addendum will establish a new lease termination date that both the landlord and tenant agree to.
For your own peace of mind, discuss lease renewal 60 days or 90 days in advance. This also gives a landlord time to find a new tenant if you cannot renew the lease or choose not to after discussing any new terms for renewal.
