Are you a tenant or a landlord? Without these 5 articles, the lease agreement is considered incomplete! Do not mention the lease agreement and do not pass it by. Starting to live in a house and delivering that house safely starts with a signature on paper. However, most often both tenants and landlords encounter big problems because the contract does not take into account the Decouples. Here in this article, I would like to remind you of the 5 critical items that must be included in the rental agreement. Because the signatures made without these articles may cause rights losses and unnecessary discussions in the future. Identity and Contact Information of the Parties A formal lease agreement is just like an ID. The name of the tenant and landlord, surname, T .C. the identification number and contact information must be complete. This detail, which is passed off by saying, ”We already know each other," becomes the first thing to look for in a dispute. Rental Price and Paying Method How much rent will be paid per month? What day will he be admitted? By hand or by bank account? The answer to all these questions should be clearly included in the contract. Especially vague statements such as ”paying by hand" can cause great problems in the future both in terms of tax and proof. Deposit Information Will a deposit be taken? How much if it is to be taken? Under what conditions will it be returned? The amount of the deposit not included in the contract causes serious disputes, especially during the eviction process. In addition, according to the Turkish Code of Obligations, the deposit amount can be up to a maximum of 3 rental fees. Lease Term and Terms of Eviction When does the contract start and when does it end? Will it extend automatically? Will the tenant pay a penalty if he leaves early? A contract that does not answer these questions may tie the hands of the parties. Therefore, especially the evacuation conditions should be written clearly and clearly. List of Fixtures and Condition of the House What's in the house? White goods, furniture, defective places, painted walls... The condition of the rented house and the items found in it should definitely be written down. This clause protects both the tenant and the landlord from future “you broke it- I didn't break it” discussions.
