tenantship
Lessee's legal standing
Tenantship is the state or condition of being a tenant—one who rents or occupies property belonging to another.
The term emphasizes the relationship or status rather than the physical arrangement: His tenantship of the farm lasted thirty years.
It appears in legal and formal contexts more often than casual speech.
