If your lease runs out, in most cases your landlord can make you leave. They do not need a reason to let the lease run out and not renew. Note: If you have a month-to-month lease, each month is a renewal. That means your landlord can decide to not renew by simply giving you a 30-day notice before your last month.
Unfortunately there is no legal requirement mandating your landlord to renew the lease. In fact the law gives your landlord the discretion to not renew the lease for any reason, or for no reason at all.
Landlords can legally set whatever criteria they want for tenants, as long as they are reasonably related to their business needs and don't violate antidiscrimination laws.

Exact minimum thresholds vary widely depending on factors like the type of apartment, current occupancy rates, and the landlord's discretion.
Renting an apartment isn't as easy as waltzing in and saying “I'll take it!”—particularly in today's competitive rental market. With many prospective tenants to choose from, landlords can be picky, and they will prioritize applicants with a track record of paying off debts and respecting their neighbors and community.
In general, a landlord will look for a credit score that is at least “good,” which is generally in the range of 670 to 739. However, that can vary by landlord or property manager, as well as the location in which you're renting.
To rent an apartment in Virginia, you'll need a valid ID, proof of income, references, and sometimes a credit check consent.
