A Kansas standard residential lease agreement is a fixed-term arrangement between a landlord and tenant for the use of property in exchange for rent. This is the most popular type of residential lease usually lasting for a 1-year term. Before signing, the parties will usually negotiate the terms of the lease and the landlord will verify the tenant’s credentials through a rental application.
