Expiration of the term of the lease
Sometimes a tenant will remain in the property even after the term of the lease has expired. This situation is called tenancy at sufferance where the landlord has to evict the tenant from the property. The tenant is considered a technical trespasser in this situation, and the law in most localities holds this type of tenant liable for the payment of rent. Landlords may start eviction processes for this type of tenant without notice.
Landlords have the option to impose a new lease term for a holdover tenant. In this situation, the landlord can raise the amount of rent.
