Provisions on the longest term of house lease

Provisions on the longest term of house lease: if the parties have agreed on the lease term, it is a term lease; If the lease term is not agreed, it is an indefinite lease; If the lease term exceeds 6 months, but it is not in written form, it shall be regarded as an indefinite lease. The lease term of fixed-term lease and non-fixed-term lease contracts shall not exceed 20 years. If the lease term exceeds 20 years, the excess part will be invalid. The lessor has the right to specify the lease term when signing the lease contract and take back the house after the lease expires. After the expiration of the house lease, the lessee has the obligation to return the rented house. If it is necessary to continue to rent the original leased house, the lessee shall propose it three months before the expiration of the lease period and sign a new lease contract with the consent of the lessor. The lessor shall deliver the leased house to the lessee for use within the time limit stipulated in the lease contract, and ensure the lessee's proper use within the term of the lease contract. When the lessor needs to recover the house before the expiration of the lease contract, it shall obtain the consent of the lessee in advance and compensate the lessee for the losses. If the lease term is not agreed, and the owner of the house requests to take back the house for self-occupation, it shall generally be allowed. If the lessee has the conditions to move, it shall be ordered to move; If it is really difficult for the lessee to move, he can be given a certain time to find a house or vacate some houses.

Personal information of the landlord of the rented house: when renting a house, the renter should carefully check the personal information of the landlord: the landlord himself, the real estate license and the ID card, and the entrusted rental house should provide the power of attorney, the real estate license, the ID card or a copy of the client. If there is no real estate license, there must be a purchase contract. If there is a sublease, there must be a lease contract and related property certificate to avoid legal disputes.

Precautions for deposit payment: the lessee evades paying the deposit. Once the tenant pays the deposit, it will be very passive, and the request may not be written into the rental contract. If the homeowner asks for a deposit, please also check the above documents. Generally, the deposit should not exceed 20% of the monthly rent, and there should be a receipt.

Write the damage of the house into the contract: the lessee should carefully write the damage of the house facilities into the contract to prevent the intermediary from deducting money when collecting the house.

Custody of receipt deposit: The lessee must remember not to lose the deposit certificate or give it to the intermediary company.

The delivery of property miscellaneous fees should be written into the contract: both parties to the lease have reached an agreement. In addition to signing a formal lease contract, the settlement and commitment of related expenses such as equipment, water, electricity, coal, gas, cable TV, telephone and property maintenance fund within the lease period should also be stated in detail and kept as an annex to the contract to avoid unnecessary troubles for themselves.

Legal basis: Article 705 of the Civil Code stipulates that the lease term shall not exceed 20 years. More than twenty years, the excess part is invalid. At the expiration of the lease term, the parties may renew the lease contract; However, the agreed lease term shall not exceed twenty years from the date of renewal.
