Deva You and your landlord may have made arrangements on the lease, which will be part of the lease agreement as long as they are not against the law. You and your landlord have the rights and obligations that are prescribed by law. The rental agreement can give you and your landlord more than your legal rights, but no less than your legal rights. If a provision of the rental agreement imposes on you or your landlord less than your legal rights, that provision cannot be enforced. Check out our blog on different types of rentals, our guide to choosing the right type of lease. It is also useful to have a clause that tells the tenant to let the lessor know, at the end of the lease, who the utilities are. This avoids owners who are waiting for a bill or do not know who to inform that the property is empty. For example, you and your landlord may have agreed at the beginning of the lease on the amount of rent and when it must be paid, whether it contains fuel, or whether your landlord can decide who else can reside in the unit. The obvious temptation is to modify the contract provided so that it more accurately reflects the situation or to enter into a separate ancillary agreement with the tenant to overcome inappropriate clauses in the rental agreement. The lease must be signed by all tenants and your landlord.

If there are common tenants, each tenant should receive a copy of the agreement. The most common form of lease is an AST. Most new leases are automatically of this type. For example, when a tenant is disabled, the lessor is expected to amend the lease so that the tenant can make improvements to the property due to disability. Landlords cannot increase the rent during the initial fixed term of an AST unless a mutually agreed clause has been included in the contract. If the contract then becomes a periodic agreement, the lessor can increase the rent, provided that the termination corresponds to the regularity of the rents. As stated above, landlords must inform the AST if the rent is verified before the contract is renewed. While an AST should be used when real estate is rented either to one individual or to multiple tenants as a family – multi-occupancy homes require another type of agreement – an AST is not always appropriate. .
