End of Tenancy and Breaking The Lease in Seven Corners

At the end of the lease term in Seven Corners, either party can opt to end the tenancy. The rental investor could choose not to renew the lease or the renter could choose to not to renew the lease. If the property owner wishes to end the lease, or end our property management services, please send us written notice as described in your rental management agreement.

When we don't receive such notice, we will strive to make choices that will keep your rental investment producing the highest possible net income. This means that we will often create a new lease for a renter 6 to 8 weeks before the end of the lease in order to renew the lease.

At that point we give the renter two choices:

1. Month-to-month --- This will include a large rent increase.
2. Renew the lease --- This will lock the property up for another year with a small rent increase.

When tenants break the lease

Sometimes things happen that require a renter to end the lease before the lease term is over. If this happens, Nesbitt Realty tries to minimize the impact of this event on the landlord. If a tenant leaves with little or no notice, this will surely cause the renter to surrender the deposit but this is never a windfall for the property owner. That money is consumed by paying for vacancy and the cost of acquiring a new tenant .

Readying the rental investment

We will have the carpet professional cleaned upon tenant move-out and the actual cost of carpeting will be deducted from the renter 's security deposit, per your lease.
We recommend that the rental investor replace the carpet every 5 to 7 years. We recommend that the rental investor paint every 5 to 7 years.

Utilities

During vacancies we will either put the utilities in our name or in the landlord's name.
