Know who's staying before they decide.
LIT is Shuk's renewal-forecasting poll. At 6, 5, 4, and 3 months before a lease ends, tenants rate their renewal intent on a five-point scale. You see doubt early — before it becomes a 30-day notice — and you have months to act, not weeks.
Four polls, one signal
Tenants respond at 6, 5, 4, and 3 months before lease end. Each response is a quick five-point pick: Very Likely, Likely, Not Sure, Unlikely, Very Unlikely.
02
Doubt, visible early
Any response below 'Likely' shows up in your early-warning view. You see the tenants you should be talking to — and the conversations worth having — months ahead of time.
03
Act before it's a vacancy
With months of lead time, you can have a real renewal conversation, start marketing the unit, or both. You stop flying blind into the renewal window.
Foresight
Your early-warning system for renewals
Most landlords don't know whether a tenant is renewing until the 60-day notice window. By then, it's already a vacancy conversation — not a retention conversation. LIT flips the timeline.
Starts 6 months out
The first poll goes out 6 months before the lease ends. Then again at 5, 4, and 3 months. Every response is tracked so you can see how sentiment moves over time.
Five-point scale, not free-text
Very Likely, Likely, Not Sure, Unlikely, Very Unlikely. Tenants can answer in seconds, and the signal is consistent across every response.
Early data signals matter
Early data shows every tenant who signaled doubt — 'Not Sure,' 'Unlikely,' or 'Very Unlikely' — ended up leaving. That's a qualitative pattern worth paying attention to, not a statistical guarantee.
Clarity
What LIT is not
LIT is a direct tenant signal, not a prediction engine. It doesn't use AI, machine learning, or predictive analytics. It asks tenants what they're thinking and gives you a clean record of their answers.
No AI, no model
LIT doesn't guess. It asks. The power comes from asking at the right time — before the tenant has decided — and from asking four times.
No auto-rent decisions
LIT doesn't generate renewal rents, calculate days-on-market, or tell you what to offer. Those decisions are yours. LIT just makes sure you're not making them blind.
