TEMPORARY RENTAL AGREEMENTS Introduction For the owners and passengers or tenants, is important to have some items as clear as possible regrading temporary rental agreements. The agreement is an instrument that establishs the relationship between both sides and it’s important to know what you are signing when you sign an agreement Who signs the agreement and the responsabilities The agreement is signed between the owner and the tenant, the agencies, realtors or brokers are intermediarys, no matter to whom they charge the commission. The agencies obligation is that what was offered is what you are getting and that is has the equipment that was promoted and that is available for its ocupation on check in. The rest of the obligations are for the owners and the tenants.

What do temporary rental agreements contain?

a- Information of those who sign: names, addresses, phone numbers and id. Numbers (DNI, passport number, etc)

b- Dates of arrival and departure

c- Agreement values/rates

d- Security deposit value, date and way its going to be returned

e- Specific responsabilities

f- Payments, for example in medium term rents eg 5 months

g- Fines in case of breach of contract.

h-Jurisdiction were the case will be solved in case of dispute

Inventory

In some cases, owners do not make you sign an inventory, my recomendation is that its fundamental to sign an inventory. And not any inventory, one that has the values, as if

something brakes or theres any inconvinient, what has been stated beforehand is always better. It has happened that owners over valued their own paintings or pictures and tenants that broke something and then said it was too expensive.

I hope this information was useful and if you need a tempoary rental agreement, you just have to go onto Yes-apartments.com and download the model of the contratc.
