Is it normal to rent a house and sign a property contract?

Legal analysis: inappropriate. When signing a lease contract, it is necessary to examine whether the lessor has the qualification of leasing subject. The lessor is the owner of the house, not the user. The property management company only manages the corresponding affairs of the property, and cannot sign the lease contract instead of the owner and lessee.

Legal basis: Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Article 704 The contents of a lease contract generally include terms such as the name, quantity, purpose, lease term, rent, payment term and method, and maintenance of the lease item.

Article 707 Where the lease term is more than six months, it shall be in written form. If the parties fail to determine the lease term in writing, it shall be regarded as an indefinite lease.

Article 708 The lessor shall deliver the lease item to the lessee in accordance with the contract, and keep the lease item in line with the agreed purpose during the lease period.
