    I stopped renting my units out. My grown children are now occupying my units and their rents are contributing to their future inheritance. No need for them to pay strangers when we can keep the money in family and avoid having to deal with these laws that are unfair to landlords. Generational wealth at its best.

    Declining to renew a lease isn't the same thing as an eviction. An eviction should absolutely require good cause. If a landlord is legally required to renew a lease he's effectively not a landlord anymore. These same politicians will fein shock when people can't find housing to rent anymore.

    The BIGGEST problem with "good cause" eviction is witnesses. If you were a tenant, would _you_ testify against the drug dealer across the hallway, who has a gun? When you can't even be assured he'll be evicted at the end of it? I wouldn't. No witnesses means no way to non-renew the very worst tenants.

    The industry code word is PITA. Stands for "Pain in the A$$". You get some tenants who are technically not in violation of their lease, but they wear you out with constantly complaints about everything... neighbors, the police, the traffic, the kids next door, etc. Calls at all hours of the day and night over trivial things, and sometimes things that are their fault. People who pay late constantly, sometimes getting it in the day before they get booted out, causing you to have to file papers over and over, post notices, and generally making more effort and trouble that the payday of their rent is worth. Sometimes they sneak in a Guest, but it's almost impossible to prove the person is staying there unless you stake out the property 24/7.
    Those are the folks we need to have the ability to non-renew for little or no reason. It's my property. I own it. I pay taxes on it. I keep it up to standard the community laws and regulations require. If I want you out, Get out!

    There was no rental market in the UK for housing in the 1980's owing to mass regulation from the post war period. In 1987 the laws were relaxed and within 10 years there was buoyant market to rent. Now the regulations on landlords are getting oppressive again so the market will gradually lock back up and be almost dead by 2030.

    There are Many causes, outside of not paying rent to evict and not renew lease: 1) constant late payments, 2) disrupting the peace of residence, 3) constant breaking of items in house, 4) police constantly called for disturbance, fighting, 5) drugs, 6) child abuse, 7) subleasing, 8) animals not allowed on property, 9) illegal unapproved business in property,...etc etc Every landlord should actually include these items in their lease write-up for their tenants to sign. Bad tenants should not have any rights at all.

      @@barnabusdoyle4930 There is a difference though, a landlord never presumes a tenant will renew a lease but tenant presumes should they do nothing wrong they will be allowed to renew their lease.
      The tenant also has an additional financial burden of moving and potential loss of income if they don't have PTO to cover missed work while moving. It is also harder to find a place to rent than a landlord to find a tenant.
      I personally feel like there should be a legitimate reason to place that kind of burden on a tenant. With that said anytime laws get put into place they leave loopholes that garbage tenants will abuse placing an undue burden on the landlord.

    As soon as a lease expires, the landlord and the tenant both can decide if they wish to renew that lease or not. A lease is a contract that has a time limit for a reason. Forcing a landlord to renew a lease at all is similar to forcing someone to use a credit card once they have paid the card off even if they didn’t want to. Insanity anyone would want to put something like that into law.

    1998. That's when I sold my 2 duplexes and 4 single family homes. I was retiring and really wanted to be retired. With 20% down payment I carried the note for 20 years at 5% simple interest. They had the option to sell any property but myself or my estate had first right to repurchase at their original purchase price. There was no option for early payoff. I was pretty much guaranteed monthly income. I chose the correct buyer and he is in the same process to enter into contract with his retirement payer, my daughter's son. It's not rocket science it's just planning your work and working your plan.

    Yes, we have had a few bad apples too. We had the garbage hoarder tenant, and we had the tenant who stored his junk outside the building to the point the city stepped in. Both of them were always behind on rent; the garbage hoarder left on her own, and we had to take the junk man to court, and was given a week to move out, and he did.

    The rental prices are so far above market average, it is astounding. Landlords charge college students astronomical rates, like $2K a month to rent a single room.
    I have family members who went to Cornell. They bought mobile homes to live in and avoid the price gouging rents. They lived in them and sold them at a profit after graduation.
    I don't blame the poster for investing in that region. It's a gold mine. But do not pretend you are doing it for environmental reasons.

So this opinion is just trying to change something that is already in place. And by the way remember there is a price fixing lawsuit underway and New York is participating in it. So it appears not only is this opinion piece trying to ignore these issues, but also trying to say that when a person gambles on an investment as a landlord, they are entitled to not bear the cost of a bad bet.
