Rental agreement help

A tenancy that is written down is easier on everybody. Tell us the arrangement and a member of our team will explain the steps, what usually goes into an agreement, and put you in touch with someone who can draw it up and register it.

What we do

• Explain the steps, the usual terms and what is normally registered where you live.
• Introduce you to a professional who drafts and registers agreements.
• Point out the terms people most often forget: notice, lock-in, maintenance and repairs, deposit return.

What we do not do

• Write the agreement ourselves or give legal advice.
• Fix the rent, the deposit or any term on behalf of the owner or the tenant.

What to have ready

• The names of the owner and the tenant
• The address of the home
• The rent, deposit and the date the tenancy begins
• Whether the home is in a society that has its own rules for tenants
