Purchase And Sale Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 5, 2023

When to sign a purchase and sale agreement?

I am in the process of purchasing a property and need to know when I should sign the purchase and sale agreement. I have been given an offer from the seller and have been told that I need to sign the agreement in order to move forward with the purchase. I am concerned about signing the agreement too soon and have questions about the timing and what risks I may be taking if I sign before I am sure I am ready.

Myrna L.

Answered Sep 24, 2023

If you are not ready to buy a property, it is only fair not to waste sellers’ time who are trying to sell their property. If, however, you are ready to buy a property but is concerned about unforeseeable risks, you can mitigate or eliminate your risks by spelling out contingencies in your Purchase and Sales Agreement. If the conditions or contingencies are not met, you do not have to go through with the deal.

Residential Lease Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 13, 2023

Renewal clauses in a residential lease agreement?

I am a tenant in a residential lease agreement and I recently received a renewal offer from my landlord. I am concerned that the renewal clause may not be in line with state law and would like to know what rights I have as a tenant in this situation. I would like to understand more about the renewal clause and how it applies to my situation.

Sarah S.

Answered Sep 15, 2023

In California, residential rental agreements are governed by a set of laws and regulations designed to protect both landlords and tenants. One crucial aspect of these agreements is the rental renewal clause, which outlines the terms and conditions for extending a lease beyond its initial term. Understanding how rental renewal clauses work under California law is essential for both landlords and tenants to ensure a smooth and legal renting experience. The Basics of Rental Renewal Clauses A rental renewal clause is a provision in a lease agreement that dictates the terms and conditions under which a lease can be extended after its initial term expires. In California, rental renewal clauses are subject to specific regulations to protect the rights of tenants. Here are some key points to keep in mind: Written Notice: Under California law, landlords must provide tenants with written notice of their intent to renew the lease or terminate the tenancy. This notice must be provided within a specific timeframe, usually 30 to 60 days before the current lease expires, depending on the length of the tenancy. Rent Increases: If a landlord intends to increase the rent upon renewal, they must follow the state's rent control laws, which may limit the amount and frequency of rent increases. It's essential for tenants to be aware of their rights regarding rent hikes. Tenant Rights: Tenants have the right to accept or decline a lease renewal. If a tenant decides not to renew the lease, they are generally required to provide written notice within a specified timeframe, typically 30 days before the lease expires. Lease Term: Rental renewal clauses may specify the duration of the renewed lease term. Some may automatically renew for the same term as the initial lease, while others may offer options for shorter or longer renewal periods. Review the Lease Agreement: It's crucial for both landlords and tenants to carefully review their lease agreements to understand the specific terms and conditions related to renewal. Any agreed-upon terms should be clearly documented in the lease. Benefits for Landlords and Tenants Rental renewal clauses can benefit both landlords and tenants in several ways: For Landlords: Provides a mechanism for maintaining a stable and predictable rental income. Allows landlords to retain responsible and reliable tenants for extended periods. Streamlines the leasing process by avoiding frequent turnover. For Tenants: Offers the option to secure a home for an extended period without the risk of eviction. Provides an opportunity to negotiate for more favorable lease terms or rent rates. Helps maintain housing stability, especially in competitive rental markets. Conclusion In California, understanding rental renewal clauses is essential for both landlords and tenants to ensure a fair and legal renting experience. These clauses provide a framework for extending a lease beyond its initial term, but they must adhere to state laws and regulations. Whether you're a landlord or a tenant, knowing your rights and responsibilities regarding rental renewals is crucial for a harmonious and successful landlord-tenant relationship in the Golden State.

Commercial Lease

California

Asked on Apr 21, 2023

What's the property description in a commercial lease?

I am a small business owner who is looking to lease a property for my business. I am currently reviewing a commercial lease and am trying to understand what is included in the property description in the lease. I am hoping to gain more clarity on what the property description entails and how it affects my business.

Gagandeep K.

Answered May 24, 2023

A property description in a commercial lease has to sufficiently identify the extent and boundaries of the property being leased. For example, it can be described by a map reference or by metes and bounds, or include a description such as "that certain building on the south-westerly corner of California and Larkin Streets." The commercial lease will include defined terms such as "Building," "Property," and "Premises". The defined terms define/describe the "Property" on which the "Building" is located which has the "Premises"/"Space" that is being leased. A sample definition of is Property Description in a Commercial Lease: ""Property" means the real property on which the Building is located together with the Building and all appurtenant fixtures and personal property of Landlord used in the operation of the Building and/or the Property, and any other improvements now existing or hereafter constructed thereon[, including the parking lot, walkways, and landscaped ground as depicted on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit [LETTER]]."
