FAQ

It is a legally binding contract detailing the responsibilities both the landlord and the tenant promise to uphold. In addition to specifics like amenities, renovations and other apartment features, the lease includes legal details like: Grounds for lease termination and eviction.

In this type of agreement, you as a landlord give exclusive rights to one agent or company to rent your property during a specified period of time. What's unique in this arrangement, is that it entitles the agency to be the exclusive listing agent for that property.

Generally, a landlord cannot take possession of the rental property, physically remove the tenant or their personal property, or change the locks without going through a court. Depending on the reason for eviction, a landlord must provide the tenant either a 14-Day or 30-day Notice to Quit.

Introduction to the Exclusive Rental Agreement It gives the chosen party the exclusive right to lease the property on the landlord's behalf, thereby excluding any other potential property managers or agents from doing so during the term specified in the agreement.

If the tenant is able to prove their claim to their landlord, they may be able to break the lease early. Overall, tenants must provide a notice letter with an attached copy of a valid protection order, court record, or written verification from a qualified person that confirms the claim.

For guests staying for an extended period (such as several weeks), the tenant should inform the landlord of the situation. If a landlord tries to evict a tenant for having occupants in a rental unit, tenants can seek dispute resolution.

If you are evicting for a reason other than nonpayment, or for no reason, you must give the tenant a 30 day Notice to Quit. If the eviction is for nonpayment, you must give a 14 day Notice to Quit.
