Yes, in South Carolina, a landlord doesn’t need a specific “reason” to end a tenancy once the lease agreement term has expired or if there’s no fixed lease (e.g., month-to-month). In those situations, the landlord can terminate the tenancy without cause by giving proper written notice (typically 30 days for a month-to-month tenancy).
However, if the tenant is still within a fixed-term lease, the landlord generally must wait until the lease ends, they cannot evict “for no reason” before then except for legal causes like non-payment of rent, lease violations, illegal activity, or other statutory grounds. In all cases, the landlord must go through the formal court eviction process (no self-help evictions).
