German term or phrase: Eigenbedarfskündigung
This is a residents' questionnaire.

This section asks "Aus welchen Gründen möchten oder müssen Sie umziehen?"

One of the possible answers is: "Eigenbedarfskündigung durch den Vermieter."

Is there a better way of expressing this than "termination by the landlord for their own use"?

Eigenbedarfskündigung durch den Vermieter
BrE / IrE: notice to quit given by the Landlord out of personal need / for the premises /


Explanation:
The German is elliptical but still needs to be added the Vermieter: note that it is masc. and not fem.

Eigenbedarf might also be to re-occupy for a quick sale, for next-of-kin or members of his own household. see the example sentence.

Example sentence(s):
  • Eigenbedarf bedeutet: Der Vermieter benötigt die Wohnung für sich selbst, für Familienangehörige oder für Angehörige seines Haushalts.
  • 90 DAY NOTICE TO VACATE. FOR PERSONAL USE AND OCCUPANCY. SECTION 501(d) NOTICE. D.C. OFFICAL CODE § 42-3505.01(d) (Supp. 2008)

  -> Thanks, AT. Funnily enough, I've drafted such landlord's notices to quit for the UK plus, to some ProZ translators' surprise, notices to quit given by the tenant. BTW. an actual prof. neg. case: Kündigung zum: notice given on, but expiring/ effective on..

termination for landlord’s use


Explanation:
...or landlord use

Compare with this:
"The tenant testified that the tenancy ended on August 31, 2011 after they received a letter from the landlord asking the tenants to move out because the landlord intended to occupy the unit. The tenant testified that that, although the landlord did not issue a proper Two Month Notice to End Tenancy for Landlord's Use, on the approved form, the tenants decided to accept the termination for landlord’s use, with the understanding that they would receive the equivalent of one month rent in compensation, as required under the Act when a landlord terminates a tenancy for landlord's use."

agree  Gordon Matthews: It is good to make it clear that the termination is for the landlord's use. "for personal use" does not make this clear.
