Lease renewal: what owners should review before the term ends
Organise your renewal review, communications and financial records while checking the rules that apply to the specific lease and city.
Read the guideLease renewal and changes: choose the right process
Distinguish renewal, non-renewal, mutual termination and landlord or tenant changes by checking the contract, location and official rules.
A change in the rental relationship does not always call for a new contract. First identify what changed: the term, the parties’ plans, ownership or the tenant. Each case has information and a procedure to review.
- 01
Identify the situation
Record the contract reference, status, term, city and relevant notices. Continuing a lease is a different question from both parties ending it or changing a party’s role.
- 02
Review rules and comparisons
Consult current Ejar provisions, especially when considering notices or rent in an existing lease. The Rental Index provides market context; it does not by itself determine whether rent can change or which renewal rules apply.
- 03
Organise supporting records
For an ownership change, review title evidence and authority to act. For termination, review payments, handover and settlement. Keep the officially recorded result instead of relying on an edited offline copy.
