Safeguarding Property Ownership: The best agreement for landlords

Typically, there are two primary objectives for investing in a piece of property. The first is purchasing the property for personal use, and the second is buying it now with the intention of selling it later for a profit when the need for funds arises. Additionally, until the property is sold, it can generate a steady monthly income through rent.

“There is a significant number of people who own multiple residential and commercial property, which they rent out to receive a substantial amount of money each month. Earning income through a piece of property is an effective and suitable method, but sometimes landlords encounter tenants who not only fail to pay rent on time but also intend to take over the property. To protect landlords from such threats, rental or lease agreements were established,” informs Pradeep Mishra, CMD, ORAM Developments.

However, even with these agreements, landlords’ interests were not fully protected. Therefore, property owners have now started opting for the ‘Leave and License’ agreement. Although similar to a rent or lease agreement, the Leave and License agreement includes a few different clauses. Let’s understand how a Leave and License agreement is formed and its benefits.

In the Landlord’s Interest

Whether it’s a rent or lease agreement or a Leave and License agreement, both documents are created primarily to protect the landlord’s interests and eliminate any possibility of the tenant taking control of the property. These documents clearly state that the property owner is giving the tenant permission to use the property for a specific period for residential or commercial purposes. This period can range from 11 months to several years, such as five or ten years. It is also mentioned that if the property is being used for residential purposes, it cannot be used for commercial activities.

Additionally, “if the agreement or Lease and License is not renewed after the specified period, the tenant will be required to vacate the property. These documents also include details like the property’s address. The difference is that in a rent agreement, the landlord is referred to as the ‘Lessor’ and the tenant as the ‘Lessee,’ while in a Lease and License agreement, they are referred to as the ‘Licensor’ and ‘Licensee’,” says Mishra.

The Difference Between the Two

A rent agreement is typically created for residential property for a period of 11 months,
