Rental Rules For Apartment & House For Rent

 


These are some basic rules decided by the government for houses and apartments given for rent.

There are some basic rules or laws that a tenant or the customer who needs a rental house must be aware of before taking rent at any particular place.

What are the rental rules?

Rental rules are the laws decided by the government and is bound to be followed by both the tenant and the owner. These are the basic guidelines that a customer or tenant must follow to live in a house for rent.

Rental Rules:-

1.     A written agreement.

It is essential to have a written agreement between tenants and owners for the law to safeguard the interests of both parties. An oral agreement is not legally binding, and no one should ever settle for it.

2.     Maintenance of the property.

In the case that the tenants refuse to pay for the repairs, the amount can be deducted from their security deposit and if the owners refuse to pay, the amount can be deducted from the periodic rent.

3.     Uninhabitable conditions

If the price of maintenance crosses 50% of the agreed rent, the house is considered to be uninhabitable.’ If the owner refuses to act upon it, the tenant(s) have the right to vacate their premises with a 15-day written notice to the lessor.

4.     The landlord or landlady cannot entire the premises without prior notice

They must inform you of their arrival beforehand and cannot carry out surprise checks—whether you are a family or a set of bachelors renting the house. The Model Tenancy Act also says that the entry must be between 7 am and 8 pm.

5.     Essential supplies

Essential services like the supply of water, electricity, parking, communication links, sanitary services etc. are the basic rights of tenants.

6.     Eviction of tenants

Tenants may be asked to vacate the premises if they fail to pay their full rent for two consecutive months.

7. Security deposit

According to the Draft Model Tenancy, it is unlawful to charge a security deposit which is over three times the monthly rent. However, just like the rent charges, the rate of the security deposit is determined by the state laws.
