As with any legal contract, Condominium Leases are not legally binding until everyone has signed.

As a Rocket Lawyer member, you will have the option to access Document Defense® for your contract, which allows a lawyer to help you demand payment or otherwise enforce your legal rights.
Even if you are providing the rental informally, creating a record of any commitments to those renting from you is key. Signing a Condo Lease could be good for you because of the following list of benefits:

During the process of building your document, you also can include details related to maintenance procedures, insurance requirements, and furnishings.

Condominium Leases each come with their own checklist of tips on what to do next. You also can engage with the document in one or all of these ways: making edits, downloading it as a PDF document or Word file, printing it out, and getting electronic signatures via RocketSign®. Finally, as a best practice, you should give a copy of the fully signed contract to the tenant. You might also like to browse our larger repository of real estate legal documents .
