It does seem counter-intuitive for a landlord to request that a long term rent-controlled tenant continue to sign a new lease, but counter-intuitive for landlords can be beneficial for tenants. You are protected from nasty rent increases, OMI notices or Ellis notices that become effective before the end of your lease.
Best Answer Thanks! You may refuse to sign the lease renewal, however, by doing so you will become a month to month tenant and will lose any protection you had with regard to rent control or rent stabilization. In addition, as a month to month tenant the landlord can commence eviction proceedings after giving you a thirty day notice to vacate.
