    Default Re: Is a Landlord Bound to an Email Agreement to Extend a Lease

    You have presented a compelling case that the landlord is bound to the one year extension.

    But i doubt that showing him this thread is going to convince him that he can't try to evict you, so the question becomes what will happen if he serves you a formal notice to quit and, when you don't move, commences an eviction case. Would you prefer to try to stay after fighting it out in court, knowing that the odds are that your lease won't again be renewed, or might this be an opportunity to part ways with this particular landlord?

    If you're in a rent control jurisdiction, you may have additional rights under the relevant ordinances.

    I do understand the burdens of moving, and that in some parts of the state it's hard to find housing, let alone housing within a typical person's budget.
