Review of rental agreement

In practice, the problem with rental agreements is often that the landlord can choose between several tenants. This is why tenancy agreements often contain very harsh clauses to the detriment of the tenant. A check of the tenancy agreement will help you to recognize these clauses.

Disadvantageous regulations

Typical provisions that are often recognized by a lawyer during such an examination of the rental agreement:

• ineffective passing on of cosmetic repairs to the tenant
• Passing on the final renovation to the tenant (so-called final renovation clauses)
• Ineffective clauses on subtenants
• Exclusion of pets
• Poor warranty regulations for rental defects at the expense of the tenant

What you should not forget

It is the responsibility of a lawyer to check the tenancy agreement. Only a lawyer knows the current case law and can assess which clauses are invalid in case of doubt and which will stand up in court. Particularly in the area of cosmetic repairs, it is very common for ineffective clauses to be agreed and included in the contract. These considerable renovation costs on moving out could often have been avoided by checking the tenancy agreement!

Check rental agreement, for whom is this an option?

It is advisable to check a tenancy agreement for every long-term tenancy. This is because errors in the contract can lead to considerable costs that you will be annoyed about later.
