a good lease is the foundation of any strong landlord-tenant relationship but it can be challenging to write a lease on your own that's why today I'm going to share with you some of my favorite templates for lease agreements [Music] welcome back Loopers my name is Sydney and I'm a content creator here at door Loop so to get started what is a lease agreement and who needs one lease agreement is a contract between a landlord and a tenant it says what the tenant will pay for your rental property and outlines the rules that they need to follow while living there to put it another way lease agreements describe the obligations that landlords and tenants have to one another during the duration of the contract if either party fails to uphold its obligations then the other may have the right to cancel the agreement and may potentially sue for damages every landlord-tenant relationship should be centered around a lease agreement without one of these it can be difficult for a landlord to seek payment for damages and remove the tenant from the property if they ever need to the bottom line is that if you have a tenant living in the property without a lease agreement you as a landlord are leaving yourself up to much more risk than necessary there are a variety of lease agreements to choose from and the best fit will depend on the type of tenancy that you're having for example some of the most popular types of lease agreements include annual agreements month-to-month vacation rentals commercial leases lease extension agreements sublease agreements and rent to own leases there are pros and cons to each style of lease agreement so be sure to consider all of your options before finalizing your decision for example annual leases limit landlord's ability to increase rent charges for at least one year however they also ensure that you get paid for the unit for an entire year which of course could be a big benefit in rental markets with low occupancy rates so let's take a look at some of the most popular templates for lease agreements we'll highlight eight of them that I think would be a good fit for you if you have a single family rental property that you plan on leasing out then it's important to have a lease document that covers all of the necessary provisions and clauses that's why joylib created our free single family lease agreement template it's a fully functional template that contains everything you need to form a legally binding agreement with your new tenant we've also included some helpful lease Clauses to get started you can download it for free in the description along with all the other leases I'll be mentioning if you want to create a standard 12-month rental lease agreement with a tenant the house rental agreement template is a good fit for you it's an easy template that you can fill in with the required information in 15 minutes or less the month to month template is good for variable term Tendencies it has some nice Clauses included in the lease already such as holdover tendency and use of premises so you won't have to fill these out yourself leases for vacation rentals can be similar to month-to-month leases however there are enough differences to make it worthwhile to use a specific vacation rental template such as the one that I Linked In the description you may also periodically need to renew a lease agreement with an existing tenant this process is a bit different than signing a standard lease so it's important to ensure that you have the right template if you like to sign a lease renewal agreement with a tenant I linked a good template to get you started in the description commercial leases require special provisions and clauses if your rental property is a commercial space you can use the commercial lease agreement template to rent to a new business whether you use the attach commercial lease agreement template or not make sure that you take care when outlining the Clauses included in a commercial agreement they are typically much different than residential lease contracts some of the tenants May request to sublease their units and as a landlord you don't necessarily need to allow this however if you do so you should make sure that the agreement contains all the necessary provisions and legal protection actions with that in mind I did link our favorite sublease agreement template and finally the rent to own template renting to own a property is a relatively rare phenomenon now but if it's something you're interested in pursuing with a tenant there is a lease agreement
