FAQ
For example, California does not require lease notarization, while other states like Ohio may have different requirements.
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.
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.
If you cannot locate your original tenancy lease, simply ask your landlord or rental management agency to send you a copy for your records. Once each calendar year, at your request, your landlord or rental agency must provide you with a copy of your lease within 15 days of the request under California Civil Code 1962.
Many landlords prefer their rental contracts to be witnessed or even notarized; however, it's not necessary to do so under Michigan law.
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.
Templates for lease agreements are widely available online; however, it is important to know how to write a lease agreement and what information must be included. Even if you decide to draft your own lease agreement, it is good practice to have it reviewed by an experienced attorney before executing.
But you don't necessarily need to hire a lawyer to write good lease agreements, you can do it yourself. But you're a first-time landlord or simply don't have the time to write a lease, you can hire a property management company to do it for you.
