NOT renewing tenant lease - Wisconsin

Hi All,

This is a pretty cut and dry question but I couldn't find it explicitly laid out in the WI 704 law chapter. Anyways, I have a one year lease that will be ending November 12th, 2016. I want the tenant to leave at the time. I'm using the standard lease from the Wisconsin Realtors Association that states "This lease is only for the slated term and is NOT automatically renewable. Landlord and Tenant must agree in written if tenancy is to continue beyond the last day of the rental term"

My question is: I can send the tenant a letter saying I'm not renewing their lease and they have to be out on the November 12th right? Even though it doesn't fall at the end of rental pay period (they pay rent on the 1st)?

Thank you!
