This is only true in places like the UK or, I understand, the US, where renters do not enjoy the same protection they would in other countries. My brother rents a flat in Germany, he can't be evicted (unless he stops paying rent) and rent increases are pre-determined and tied to inflation (ie, the landlord can't ask for a 5% rent increase each year). In Italy contracts have a minimum 4 year duration, during which rent increases are capped at three quarters of inflation. |

Which,,,is the reason that probably 99/100 people get evicted in the US. The remaining is generally due to property destruction or neglect of the property specifically counter to the lease agreement.
A landlord not renewing a lease to a tenant at the one of a lease term is not an eviction.
