If you don’t remove a tree stump, it can lead to a number of issues.

Removal of the tree, but leaving behind a stump, does not signify the end of growth. Stumps can sprout new growth from their base in the growing season, which makes them look even more unsightly. In some cases, even after a tree is felled, its roots can continue to grow and spread. These roots could cause cracks to appear in your foundation or interfere with pipes, cables or your septic tanks.
The stump may seem harmless, but it is often anything but. Tree stumps may harbour ants, termites, wood-boring beetles and other insects. It would not be long before an infestation was in full swing. This can affect the integrity and value of your home and have an adverse affect on your plant life.
Estate agents say that curb appeal has a 10% to more impact on the market price of a house. When you sell your home, a tree stump that is visible on your property can make it difficult to get the price desired.
