A missed renewal drops the resident to month-to-month or forces a hasty non-renewal. Both cost money.
Renewals get missed because they are tracked manually. Run a fixed cadence instead: offer at sixty days before term end, follow up at thirty, decision by fifteen. Anything driven by lease expiry dates in the system rather than a personal calendar stops being missed.
A missed renewal drops the resident to month-to-month or forces a hasty non-renewal. Both cost money.
A missed renewal is not a neutral outcome. The resident drops to month-to-month or into holdover, and both leave the length of the tenancy, the notice you owe, and the rent you can charge open to argument at the worst moment.
Sixty days is the practical trigger because it precedes the point at which residents start looking. It also leaves room for a counter-offer, which is where most of the retained value in a renewal actually sits.
Put the number in writing early. Residents who are told the renewal rent late assume the worst and tour alternatives while waiting, and a tour is difficult to un-ring.
Unintended holdovers create legal ambiguity.
60/30/15-day cadence, always. Renewal offer at 60 days.
AyiLease surfaces renewals at the right window.
Follow the cadence to the decision point, then serve the non-renewal or month-to-month notice your lease and local law require. Silence should not default into ambiguity.
Notice periods for rent increases and non-renewals are set by state and sometimes city law. Confirm the requirement where the property sits before setting your cadence.
Every property should follow the same leasing playbook — screening, offer, signature, and welcome.
Photo-documented inspections, itemized deductions, and statutory return deadlines that keep deposits out of small-claims court.
Escalations, options, CAM reconciliations, and insurance expirations tracked instead of buried in PDFs.
Base price is not what you pay. The hidden costs of property management software — add-ons, integrations, SMS, and staff time — and how to find them.
How add-on modules — screening, accounting, resident portals, websites — push the real price of property management software far above the base plan.
A practical path from a pile of single-purpose tools to one connected property management platform — without losing data or breaking workflows.
$49/month includes 5 units, then per-unit pricing that drops as you grow. Optional modules are billed separately and must be added deliberately.
