Tenants report their reasons for choosing not to renew their lease: the landlord

The reason for renters choosing not to renew a lease is more likely something within their landlord’s control, and less likely for personal reasons.

372,000 renters participated in a survey for the National Multifamily Housing Council and one-third admitted to not renewing a lease because of the landlord.


Many cited package theft and slow response to maintenance needs as just two reasons for why they didn’t like their landlord.

Lower rent was also a reason renters chose to leave.

Over 25% wanted to find better apartment features and one-fifth wanted to be in a better community.

Most factors reported as reasons the tenants left were under the landlord’s control.
