A Wisconsin Association of Realtors residential lease agreement is a legal document that outlines the terms and conditions of a rental agreement between a landlord and tenant. This document provides all of the information that will protect both parties from a legal standpoint. After the tenant shows interest in the property, the landlord will collect the tenant’s personal information and consent to a credit report through a rental application.
