Lease Indication Tool (LIT)

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.

01

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.

✓ Built for independent landlords + PMs

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.

✓ No hidden fees

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.

✓ Included in flat $5/unit

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.

Unique to Shuk

No other PMS in the independent landlord space runs a structured renewal indicator poll against every tenant four times before lease end. It's one of the four things Shuk does that nobody else does.

  • 6, 5, 4, 3 Months before lease end
