I want to indicate to the tenant that I will not renew the next lease. Is there anything wrong (illegal) with telling them this early (6 months).

There is nothing illegal about it but iff you tell him now he may be tearing up your place for the next six months and giving you a lot of lip in the process. Stick with the statutory required notice and be firm with it. Send the notice by certified mail.
Do not let the tenant tell you he is going to use the deposit money for the last rent payment. If this happens, post here again for advice. There are ways to handle that.

I agree with Bill. Telling him that you are going to end the agreement that early raises the chance that they are going to treat your apartment like crap for the next six months. Read your lease and see what the mandatory minimum amount of time is to end the lease. Usually its a month. Send it certified mail at that time. Don't give people the chance to do the wrong thing. If you do they will usually let you down.

Is it a term lease? If so, they already know when the lease ends and a notice is not required. Of course I would give written notice anyway. If the lease continues after the termination date by the landlord accepting rent payments or converts into a month to month, wait until the state law says to give the notice that you will not be renewing. Advising tenants early that you will not renew will stir up trouble.
