Negotiating a renewal in Fremont

  1. Check your own ZIP, not just the city: in Fremont, ZIP-level changes over the past year range from +3.2% to +6.0%.
  2. Start 60–90 days before your lease ends, before you're short on time to look elsewhere.
  3. Lead with wanting to stay, then the numbers: your increase next to the local trend, with the source named.
  4. Name a specific number, and offer something in return, like a longer lease, if you can.
  5. Get any agreement in writing before you sign the renewal.
