FAQ
A lease obligates both you and your landlord for a set period of time, usually a year. Under a typical lease, a landlord can't raise the rent or change other terms, until the lease runs out (unless the lease itself provides for a change, such as a rent increase mid-lease).
Draft the amendment: The landlord should draft and review the lease amendment agreement. Verify that the changes comply with state and local laws. Also, check that there are no conflicts with the original lease agreement. Sign the amendment: Both the landlord and tenant should sign the new lease amendment.
Section 6-58.55 of the Alameda Municipal Code requires that landlords provide an initial registration statement for each rental unit, including landlords of units that are subsidized through the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) program.
Once you have a clear idea of what you want and what your lease allows, you should communicate with your landlord in a respectful and professional manner. You should explain your situation and your reasons for renegotiating, and present your proposal in a way that shows how it can benefit both parties.
A change of terms would require the approval of both parties (landlord and tenant). Some leases do contain a clause allowing the landlord to change the terms, but these are usually not true leases. If your agreement has a similar clause than either party may change the terms by giving notice.
