You signed a lease when you first moved into your new apartment. That was an exciting time and you were ready to make the place your own. But whether you went with a fixed-term lease or even a short-term lease, at some point, the lease ad all of its terms will expire and you will need to figure out what you would like to do next. Those steps will depend on whether you would like to stay in the apartment or not.
For those who are planning to leave that apartment and who do not want to renew or extend the lease, then it is just necessary to give the landlord a notice, which is usually 30-days before you would like to move out, and then you are good to go. Make sure that you clean up the apartment and fix anything that you may have broken along the way. This will make it easier to get your security deposit back.
For those who decide that they would like to stay in the same apartment and not move out, the options that are available will depend on what works the best for you and the landlord. Sometimes your lease will just change to a month to month and you and the landlord will keep with that until you or they are ready to end the arrangement. This can add some flexibility to things, but there is also a lot of uncertainty for both parties, so it is not always the best option.
You can also choose to extend or renew the lease. This will help you to get some new terms to work on and will give some stability to you and to the landlord when you agree to stick around. You can negotiate on the rent change and any of the other parts of the process that you would like to work on before you sign a new lease. But when it is done, you can continue to stay in the same apartment.
