What are tenant rights?

Lessee rights are the rights that the lessee has in the event that a lease agreement meets the necessary conditions. These rights generally arise from the obligations of the lessor. Within the scope of these rights and obligations, the lessee may make certain requests from the lessor. In general, tenant rights are as follows:

The right to receive the leased property from the lessor for the purpose and purpose for which the leased property is leased.

The right to demand the elimination of the issues that prevent the use of the lessor during the term of the lease agreement.
