I am a landlord in Philly. I rented to people last year, giving them a 12 month lease. The lease requires both parties to give 60 day notice of renewal or non renewal. About 75 days before lease expiration, I gave them a letter laying out my renewal terms. I asked them to check the appropriate box (renew or non-renew), sign and return to me with the May, 2013 rent. As of today, they have paid the May rent but have not returned the letter.
I have asked twice for the letter. They sent me an email saying they want to renew. Now, they have sent me another email saying they want to talk before signing the renewal letter.
My questions, at this point are:
Are they in violation of the lease for failing to respond on time?
Must I stick by my renewal offer? Can I make changes to it? Can I withdraw it entirely?
What options do I have?
Thanks for your help.

What does your original lease state regarding non-renewal? Does it go month to month?

Why not just talk to them? That's a good chance to discuss/explain all the issues.
