Residential Lease

Get Started

A real estate lease is a written agreement between a Landlord and a Tenant establishing the rights and responsibilities of each party. The Landlord is the owner of real estate (also known as "premises") who rents that property to a Tenant for the Tenant's use. A "residential" lease applies to real estate used as a place for where a Tenant lives, while a "commercial" lease applies to business property.

A written lease should be prepared and signed whenever property is rented to reduce the likelihood of misunderstandings between the Tenant and the Landlord regarding the rental arrangement.
