Landlords are required to provide notice to tenants if they intend to raise rent more than five percent or if they do not intend to renew the lease. The landlord must provide such notice at least: 30 days in advance of renewal if a tenant has lived in the apartment less than one year and has less than a 12-month lease.

If the tenant does not accept the renewal offer within the prescribed time, the landlord may refuse to renew the lease and seek to evict the tenant through court proceedings. If the tenant accepts the renewal offer, the landlord has 30 days to return the fully executed lease to the tenant.

Assign a Lease A tenant may not assign the lease without the landlord's written con- sent. The landlord may withhold consent without cause. If the landlord reasonably refuses consent, the tenant cannot assign and is not entitled to be released from the Lease.

For example, if the landlord wants the tenant to move out by November 1 and the rent is due on the first of each month, the landlord must give notice by September 30. In New York 5 Page 9 City, 30 days' notice is required, rather than one month.
