Many landlords prefer their rental contracts to be witnessed or even notarized; however, it's not necessary to do so under Michigan law.
Michigan Lease Agreements do not need to be notarized. The Rental Contract is legally binding as long as it's signed by both the Landlord, or the lessor, and the Tenant, or the lessee.
Here's a list of standard fields that you should include in your lease agreement: Tenant information. Include each tenant's full name and contact information. Rental property description. Security deposit. Monthly rent amount. Utilities. Lease term. Policies. Late fees.
Leases don't have to be in writing. But if a lease is written, it must include the name and address where the landlord will notify the tenant of changes to the lease. The lease must tell tenants they must give the landlord a forwarding address in writing where they can be reached within four days after moving out.
For example, California does not require lease notarization, while other states like Ohio may have different requirements.
Handwritten contracts are legally binding if they meet the necessary conditions that apply to all contracts: mutual agreement, capacity, consideration, and legal validity. There are no legal differences between typed and handwritten agreements when it comes to enforceability.
When viewing your lease, you can download and print a draft directly from your web browser. Once in your lease hub, you will see the option to View Lease. If you click on View Lease, you'll then have the option to download the lease as a PDF and print your PDF file as needed.
State laws on leases and rental agreements can vary, but a landlord or property management company should provide you with a copy of your signed lease upon request. You should make your request in writing, so you have proof if there is a dispute later.
