Loving where you live? Don’t let your lease expiration sneak up on you. It’s best to start thinking about renewal well before your lease end date. Planning ahead means less stress, no apartment hunting and even the chance to secure more favorable terms for your next lease. Not sure where to start? We’ve got answers to all your lease renewal questions.
Will my lease renewal have the same terms as my existing lease?
Once your current lease expires, you’ll need to sign a new lease agreement, which might have changes that could range from your rental rate to length of lease term. Typically, your Resident Services Team will reach out with renewal options prior to your lease expiration.
What impact will my current residency have on my ability to renew my lease?
A lot, so be sure to be a responsible resident! That means paying your rent on time, following community rules, being respectful of your neighbors and taking care of your apartment. The best way to renew your lease is to ensure you comply with your current lease terms.
Can I remove a roommate from my lease?
If you want to remove a roommate from your lease, it’s best to talk to your Resident Services Team about options. If you can’t financially accommodate the entire lease on your own, you’ll want to have another roommate lined up before removing an existing one.
Can I renew my lease online?
Many apartment communities will let you renew your lease online or through a resident mobile app, which can streamline the process. Lease renewal time is also a good opportunity to review your renters insurance policy and make any needed updates.
