If I am offered a renewal lease, can my landlord renege for any reason without notice?
My lease is up at the end of this month. My ex-boyfriend is friends with the manager. He told me that he is not going to re-rent to me even though I received a letter offering for me to sign my lease and the different terms to choose from. I am unable to talk to them until the morning but I would like to know my rights. How much notice to they have to give me? Can I be evicted for no reason?

Please seek legal help. Your landlord is not the one renegging here and maybe you need to contact him or her directly. The manager is playing games to help his friend. I woud view the letter as an offer. Did you accept in wiritng? I would and send the writing asap by mail with certificate of mailing. get help. Good luck.
