Use this lease if you're interested in renting a home to a tenant for a fixed period of time (usually a year). During the life of the lease, the landlord can't increase the rent or end the tenancy, and the tenant is responsible for paying rent on time.

Important to Know:

If you prefer to create a monthly agreement, use Month-to-Month Residential Rental Agreement.
State laws vary concerning key issues such as the maximum amount a landlord may collect for a security deposit; and how landlords must hold, use and return deposits. For this information, turn to Every Landlord's Legal Guide, Every Landlord's Guide to Finding Great Tenants or The California Landlord's Law Book: Rights & Responsibilities.

You can also find state-specific information on your state's consumer protection website.

For some states, Nolo offers leases and rental agreements that contain all the state-specific information you'll need. If you live in one of these states, consider using one of Nolo's comprehensive Landlord Kits:
