Landlord Tenant
Rental Agreement
Washington
Are rental agreement templates reliable?
I recently signed a rental agreement that I found online. I was told that it was a legally binding document, but I am concerned that it may not be reliable because it was not drafted by a lawyer. I would like to know if rental agreement templates are reliable or if I should have the agreement reviewed by a lawyer.
Merry A.
A Washington State residential landlord/tenant template may or may not be reliable depending on who drafted it or provided it, whether or not it applies to a particular situation, and whether it is up to date (in 2023, WA State made several changes to the law). You can review the state law here: https://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=59.18 However, some cities/counties have additional requirements and/or provisions that also must be followed. It would have been a good idea to have an attorney review the document BEFORE you signed it.

What happens if a rental agreement expires?
I recently signed a rental agreement for an apartment. The agreement was for a one year lease and it is now coming close to the expiration date. I am wondering what are my rights and obligations if the agreement expires. I am concerned that the landlord may try to keep me in the apartment longer than I am legally obligated to stay.
Diane D.
When your lease expires, then it is over unless you sign a new lease or fail to give your landlord a 30-day notice. Send your notice and move out when before the lease expires, which could be the last day of the lease.

I'm a landlord looking to add a lease clause that allows my tenant to break the lease if he/she covers all rent up until the start of the new tenant's lease. Can you help me?
I'm in Illinois and my current tenant would like to renew the lease but add this clause for flexibility to possibly purchase a house. We discussed that she will cover the rent up until the new tenant moves in.

Are there automatic renewals in rental agreements?
I am looking to rent a property and have read the rental agreement, however, I am unsure if there are any automatic renewals in the agreement. I have heard that sometimes rental agreements are set up to automatically renew after a certain period of time, but I am not sure if this is the case with my agreement. I am looking for clarity on whether or not the agreement I am signing includes any automatic renewals.
Merry A.
Residential month to month rental agreements and/or residential lease agreements often include terms regarding whether or not an agreement automatically renews. However, the Washington State Residential Landlord Tenant Law and/or ordinances in certain WA cities sometimes may provide the answer to your question. https://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=59.18

Residential Lease Agreement

What is a residential lease agreement?
I am looking to move to a new apartment and need to know the details of a residential lease agreement. I am familiar with the basics of a lease, but want to make sure I understand all the details of what I am signing. I am also interested in understanding what my rights and responsibilities are as a tenant.
N'kia N.
A residential lease agreement is sometimes referred to as a "residential rental agreement," a "rental agreement," a "residential lease," a "lease agreement," or simply a "lease." It is a legal contract between a landlord and a tenant that details the terms and conditions of the tenancy, including the rights and responsibilities of each party. Every U.S. state has laws regarding the rights and responsibilities of residential landlords and tenants. For example, North Carolina's "Residential Rental Agreement Act" can be found in Chapter 42 of the North Carolina General Statutes. Generally, a residential tenant has the right to possess (or occupy) the property, the right to quiet (or peaceful) enjoyment of the property, and the right to the property being fit and habitable. In exchange, a residential tenant is responsible for paying a rental fee (in full and when due), not damaging the property, and keeping the property safe and sanitary. However, a residential lease agreement may grant additional rights to and/or impose additional responsibilities upon a tenant, so long as neither conflict with the law. For example, a landlord might provide a tenant access to a business center, a clubhouse, or an exercise room but might charge a fee for said access. For another example, one landlord may prohibit pets, one may allow pets but charge no fee, and another may allow pets and charge a fee. Last, not everything stated in a residential lease agreement is necessarily enforceable. Having an attorney review a lease before signing it can help clarify the rights and responsibilities of the landlord and the tenant, which can also help avoid confusion and conflict later on.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
