Landlord-Tenant Agreements

A landlord-tenant agreement is a legal contract between a property owner (landlord) and a renter (tenant). This agreement outlines the terms of renting a property, including the rent amount, payment due dates, duration of tenancy, responsibilities for maintenance, and rules for using the property. Both parties must abide by the terms, and the agreement protects their rights. Common elements include security deposits, notice periods for ending the tenancy, and what happens if either party breaches the contract. Understanding this agreement is crucial for ensuring a fair and clear relationship between landlords and tenants.
