"With something as important as a rental agreement, you always need to make sure you have covered al the issues. The first and most important is to define exactly what the rental unit is and how it can be used during the term. So you should combine a brief description in the agreement itself with a schedule describing the state of the unit's repair, and a list of all the contents let for use. Setting the mutual duties for maintenance and repair is also useful to avoid future disputes. And linking the state of the property on termination to the return of the security deposit is necessary. One other thing worth thinking about is whether to build in the right to claim a lien if the rent is unpaid. That gives the landlord the right to seize and, if necessary, sell the renter’s property to recover unpaid rent. If in doubt, get expert help to customize the agreement."

"My dad died a while back and I decided to rent out our old family home rather than leave it standing empty. I needed a rental agreement. Free is a bonus. Except that I was worried when I read it and ended up paying for it to be customized by the contributor. It didn’t cost a whole lot but it was more hassle than I expected. A couple of examples. I love our old home and wanted to make sure it was properly insured by the renter. That meant a right to see the policy and the right to terminate the agreement if I found out the policy lapsed. And the security deposit. If the renter insured, the renter would pay for the repairs out of the policy. I wanted to keep the deposit in case the renter left the home in a poor state and I had work to do to make it good again. The final agreement I ended up with doesn’t look much like this which is a good thing because I got what I wanted and it probably cost me less than going to an attorney picked from Yellow Pages. "
