Does anyone know the name of this agreement?

I vaguely remember on the BP Podcast some conversations about a non-binding, code-of-ethics type agreement promoting mutual respect between a new landlord and tenant -- above and beyond the lease agreement. I like the idea of this. But I can't find a document like this anywhere, much less find the name of this document. Ring a bell to anyone else?

In Michigan you don't have to have a reason to NOT RENEW one's lease.  

If it were an Annual Lease Agreement, that is different.  Thus, the reason I stated in my post M-T-M.

Foot Note:  I haven't seen a law yet that says a Landlord MUST renew someone's lease.  But I'm sure that will be coming.  

One more thought.

There is a different\ce between a Termination of Tenancy and a Non-Renewal of a Lease Agreement.

Termination of Tenancy means you need just cause, however a non-renewal of a lease, as a rule, doesn't need an explanation, but it is the right thing to do .
