Similar documents: key differences

  • Lease vs. Rental Agreement — often interchangeable, but 'lease' usually refers to long-term rentals.
  • Fixed-Term Lease vs. Month-to-Month Rental Agreement — fixed-term leases have set end dates, while month-to-month agreements renew automatically.
  • Tenancy Agreement vs. Lease Contract — both serve similar purposes, with 'tenancy agreement' often used for residential situations.
  • Sublease vs. Assignment — subleasing allows tenants to rent their space, while assignment transfers the entire lease to another.
