FAQ
A lease option, also called a “lease with the option to buy,” is a type of rent-to-own contract. This agreement allows one to rent a home for a certain period and an opportunity to buy it at the end of the lease period.
Verbal versus Written Leases Ohio law does allow some types of verbal agreements to constitute valid contracts, but certain types of leases cannot be enforced at law if not in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.
A lease agreement is a legally binding contract outlining the terms under which one party agrees to rent property, whether real or personal, from another party. This agreement includes important details such as the rent amount, duration, responsibilities of both parties, and conditions for terminating the agreement.
Mutual Assent: The contracting parties must have a “meeting of the minds” and have the intent to be bound by the contract and its essential terms. Lawful purpose: The purpose of the contract may not be illegal. For example, a contract to hire a hit-man is not an enforceable contract.
Tenant Responsibilities When Breaking a Lease Providing proper notice (30 days for month-to-month leases) Paying early termination fees. Leaving the property in good condition. Cooperating with the landlord's efforts to re-rent. Handling outstanding rent and utilities. Removing personal belongings.
Under Ohio law all leases that have a term of three (3) years or longer must be signed and notarized to be considered valid and in effect. Failure to have a lease with a term of three (3) or more years notarized can potentially invalidate that lease.
For example, a tenant and landlord may agree to a five-year lease with a five-year option to renew. At the end of the first five years, the tenant is given the chance to continue the lease for another five years. If you think you may renew, be sure to bring up extension provisions with your landlord.
