apartment lease
Tenant's binding agreement
An apartment lease is a binding contract between a landlord and tenant specifying terms of rental—duration, monthly rent, security deposit, and rules governing the property.
Most run for one year, though shorter and longer terms exist.
We signed a two-year apartment lease to lock in the rent.
Breaking a lease early typically incurs penalties.
