In conversation always obtain a contact number and email address to update our records. You have and will
continue to be shared to the Delinquency sheet to keep you updated of were tenants payments stand.
Renewals:
Renewals are sent 30, 60 and 90 days in advance. Ram is already tracking and notifying us that renewal is coming
upon expiration. Normally found in my bin. If Ram has placed in my bin normally a CMA (Comparable Market
Analysis) has been ran for that home.
● Review resident ledger to ensure resident is not currently delinquent. (Renewal offer can not be made while a
resident is currently under eviction and/or owes monies.)
● If resident has no balance sitting on their resident ledger, check that tenant has been financially responsible and paid
out all rents, late fees, etc charges in a timely manner.
● Proceed with contacting resident. “Hi …., this is Sheila with Ashoka Lion, your current rental management
company. The purpose of my phone call was to notify you that your lease is set to expire on DATE and I
would like to see if you intend to renew your contract , revert to month to month or plan to provide our office
a 30 day notice 30 days prior to your lease expiration?” Assuming the next question /statement is, :”How much
would my rent go up?” Or “Yea, I will renew as long as my rent remains.” Your response, “I can not advise you if
your rent will remain the same, increase, etc my main purpose was to seek your intentions. Our Property
Manager will get back to you within the next two weeks once contact has been made with property owner to
identify the intentions of rent.”
● Once conversation has happened with resident please update task with resident intentions and request that I contact
the owner.
● If resident shared with you that they intend to continue on a month to month lease, look on lease documents (found in
Buildium, search address, click resident, found under leases.) page 11, paragraph 25. Special Provisions to ensure
accurate charge on month to month cost when lease reverts to month to month. Resident will need to be forwarded a
letter via buildium (email and ezmail) 30 days in advance stating the following:
“Hi there,
Please be advised that effective November 1st, 2014, the monthly rent for the rented premises you now
occupy as an Ashoka Lion resident shall be increased to $950 per month for a 12 month lease payable

your present rent of $900 per month.
