A lease is just like any other contract. Therefore, pay close attention to all the details as stated in the contract. Remember that you are a renter, and you should not only thoroughly examine the lease but also understand its content. After reading the lease, don’t hesitate to ask if you don’t understand some aspects or if you need further explanation or clarification. Once signed, the lease becomes a binding contract between you and the landlord. Therefore, make sure there are clear communication and understanding between you and the owner. Some properties have strict limits and restrictions whereas other don’t.
