For these agreements both the parties should have their document in which their names and signatures should have been mentioned properly. Make sure the document should have proper legal names with correct spellings.
- Property description: It is very important for the tenant to have complete detail about the property. The description includes the building’s name if required, its proper address, unite number or any kind of information that can be used for the property identification.
- Payment:The tenant can give a non-refundable payment to the seller in advance so that they can get the purchase option for buying that property later which is known as option payment. It can be any amount. You can set the down payment with the purchasing price and also set a time-table for doing the payments.
- Length terms: The beginning and ending dates of your lease agreement should be mentioned in the contract. It should also contain the information about the renewal terms and when the tenants should notify their landlords in advance, if the contract date is ending.
