Under the Philadelphia Good Cause Eviction Bill, any one of the following is good cause:
Habitual nonpayment or late payment of rent;
Breach of a material lease term;
Engaging in activity that is a nuisance, or substantially affects the health or safety of the landlord, or other tenants;
Causing substantial deterioration of the property;
Refusal to admit the landlord to the property to make repairs or inspect, after the landlord notifies the tenant to stop refusing;
Refusal to execute a written lease extension for materially the same terms; and
Refusal to agree to a rent increase or other changes to a lease (e.g., a new no-pets policy or an increased utility charge), provided the landlord:
gives the tenant 30 days' notice of the changes (the tenant is deemed to have refused the changes if they do not accept them at least 15 days before the expiration of the lease term); and
intends and reasonably expects to apply the proposed changes to the next tenant.
