Reasons to have a written agreement (with family)

A lease is recommended to outline, in writing, the following:

  1. Lease Term. Both parties understand the rent amount, end date, and conditions for moving in.
  2. Tenant’s Responsibilities. Such as a security deposit, utilities, repairs, and any other obligations.
  3. Default. In the event someone doesn’t hold up their end of the tenancy, what happens if the lease is broken.
  4. Termination (month-to-month lease). If a month-to-month lease, there should be terms on how much notice is required to terminate the lease.
