Landlord and Tenant

Landlord and tenant refers to the legal relationship between a property owner (landlord) and a person who rents or leases that property (tenant). The landlord provides a space for living or business in exchange for rent, while the tenant agrees to pay that rent and follow the terms of a lease or rental agreement. This relationship is governed by laws that protect the rights and responsibilities of both parties, such as maintaining the property, paying rent on time, and rules about eviction. Understanding this relationship is crucial for both landlords and tenants to ensure fair and lawful rental practices.
