Lease Amendment

When things change with your lease agreement, and both the tenant and landlord agree on the change, creating a Lease Amendment is a great way to modify the terms of the original lease without having to overhaul the whole thing. Whether you're a landlord or a tenant, a Lease Amendment helps you move forward with your leaseand with your life.

Use the Lease Amendment document if:

• You're a landlord who wants to make specific changes to an existing lease.
• You're a tenant and you would like to propose certain lease changes to your landlord.
• You and your tenant have discussed changes to your current lease, and you'd like to formalize the agreement.
• You and your landlord have agreed on changing certain terms in your lease, and you'd like a written record of these changes.

A Lease Amendment is a handy tool for both landlords and tenants, making it simple for both parties to document an agreement to modify the terms of the original lease. Essentially, it allows you to change certain terms, while leaving the rest of the lease intact and in full effect. When creating your Lease Amendment, you'll want to include information such as: the names of the landlord(s) and the tenant(s); the effective date of the original lease; the date of the lease amendment; the address and nature of the leased property; whether the original lease was recorded with the county; which provisions of the original lease are being amended; and how they are being modified.
