FAQ

A tenant is an individual who has signed a lease agreement and is legally responsible for rent and property maintenance. On the other hand, an occupant lives in the property without being part of the lease agreement and does not have the same financial obligations or legal rights as a tenant.

Anyone named on the tenancy agreement is a tenant under the Residential Tenancy Act; roommates who are not named on the tenancy agreement are generally only occupants. Tenants have rights against and obligations to the landlord that occupants do not have.

To write a simple contract, title it clearly, identify all parties and specify terms (services or payments). Include an offer, acceptance, consideration, and intent. Add a signature and date for enforceability. Written contracts reduce disputes and offer better legal security than verbal ones.
