tenancy agreements
Renter-landlord legal documents
Tenancy agreements are legal contracts between landlords and tenants that establish the terms of renting property.
They specify rent amount, payment schedule, duration, and responsibilities of each party—who handles repairs, whether pets are allowed, conditions for ending the lease.
Read your tenancy agreement carefully before signing.
British English favors this term; Americans typically say lease or rental agreement.
