My tenants have a 1 year lease. Do I have to give a reason for not renewing their lease? I found new tenants that I’d prefer to rent to and don’t want to “kick them out” before the lease is up but I’d like to have a new tenant when the old lease is up.

A tenant does not have to leave at the end of the lease term, the tenancy continues on a month to month basis unless the landlord has a valid reason to terminate the tenancy. Terminating the tenancy in order to have another tenant move in is not considered a valid reason to terminate the agreement.
