It is expressly agreed between the parties that if default is made in the payment of the rent agreed to in Section 3 of this agreement, or any part of such rent, or in any of the terms, conditions, and covenants contained in this Agreement, to be kept by Lessee, or any of the rules and regulations now or hereafter established, or if the Premises shall be deserted or vacated, it shall be the right of Lessor at any time thereafter, at Lessor’s option, without notice, to declare the lease term ended and to re-enter the Premises, or any part thereof, either with or without process of law, to expel, remove, and haul Lessee’s RV from the premises, using such force as may be necessary to do so, and to repossess and enjoy the premises as before this Lease Agreement, without prejudice to any remedies which might be otherwise used for arrears of rent or preceding breach of covenants by Lessee, Lessee expressly waiving all right to any notice or demand under any statute of this state relating to forcible entry and detainer.

What the Sample Lease Agreement Is and What It Covers

A Sample Lease Agreement is a written contract that sets the rights and responsibilities of a landlord and tenant for the rental of real property. It typically defines the parties, premises, term, rent, security deposit, permitted uses, maintenance obligations, utilities, default remedies, and procedures for renewal or termination. In the United States, electronic execution and storage of leases are generally enforceable under the ESIGN Act and state UETA laws, though a few statutory exceptions and state-specific recording rules can affect enforceability in particular situations.

Why Use a Clear, Complete Sample Lease Agreement

A well‑drafted lease clarifies expectations, reduces disputes, and documents legal remedies for both parties in writing.

Frequent Preparation Errors to Avoid

  • Mismatching party names or omitting authorized signers, leading to claimed lack of authority and delayed enforcement or recording.
  • Using unclear notice addresses or failing to define delivery methods, which causes disputes about whether proper legal notice was given.
