PDF Editor FAQ

What are other lease agreements other than a residential lease agreement that someone can use for their residential property?

In California, some kinds of terms are not enforceable in a residential lease that might be enforceable in other kinds of leases. If you use a standard “boilerplate” residential lease for your state, you can avoid signing something that you can’t enforce.More: What Types of Lease Clauses Are Illegal in California?

What are some restrictions landlords can use on a leasing agreement?

I think that what you should do is go onto the internet and look for “residential lease agreement for xxxx (state you’re interested in)” Then you will find what is standard and acceptable in the state where you will be encountering a lease agreement.Easy. I don’t have to guess what you might be interested in, you don’t have to trust unknown person from Quora. You win, and I don’t fritter away my time.

My tenant decided to paint the home he rents, without permission, and subtracted the amount of money he spent from the rental. What would you do, if you were in my shoes?

I’d evict him. He had no right to paint the home. He didn’t suggest to you that he paint it, he didn’t ask permission, he wants you to pay. No.If he rented a car, he wouldn’t be allowed to paint the car, replace anything in it, nothing.If he rented a room, as in a hotel, he wouldn’t be allowed to paint the room.What he did was to vandalize your property. He should pay you for the damages.Oh, wait! He hasn’t paid rent. Please evict him right away for non-payment of rent. Be very polite when you go to court. Don’t lose your temper, don’t be snide or sarcastic. Just behave like the injured party you are and ask the court to help you rid yourself of such a destructive and lawless tenant (tone the words down, but I think you could).8/9/18 EDIT: Just to clarify implied regulations, here are excerpts from four standard residential lease contracts - each one prohibits painting without permission by landlord/lessor:NJ Assoc. of Realtors Std. Res. Lease form downloaded from internet: “Any and all changes, additions or improvements made without the Landlord's written consent shall be removed by the Tenant on demand by the Landlord.”Residential lease form purchased from stationary store, “content by NOLO”: “Except as provided by law, or as authorized by the prior written consent of Landlord, Tenant will not make any repairs or alterations to the premises, including nailing holes in the walls or painting the rental unit.”From Greater Boston Real Estate Board standard residential lease: “at no time can the Tenant paint, decorate, …”A different residential lease from the Greater Boston Real Estate Board: “The Lessee shall not paint, decorate, or… without the prior written consent of the Lessor…”If you want to be a landlord, it is wise to have a lease agreement signed by you and your tenant. It is, in my opinion, better to use a standard, acceptable lease document to use than to try to think up all the ways things can go wrong and incorporate them into your own lease. The NOLO lease I got from an office supply store, so it’s pretty easy to find one. You can change it if you want, or even add more clauses if you think it’s necessary. But do use a lease, it will save you lots of grief in the long run.
