Leases

Need a new (or better) lease form? 

You have come to the right place.

I have NEW lease forms for 2020!

I have been drafting Arizona leases and rental agreement forms (hereinafter referred to simply as “lease” forms) for 30+ years and I have NEVER had a client tell me they were unhappy with the final product.

I offer several types of lease forms:

• SHORT-TERM RENTAL AGREEMENT** – For short-term rental properties (e.g., vacation, recreational lodging, etc.) that are (or are not) advertised on VRBO, Airbnb, FlipKey, and similar online platforms.
  • Master Lease and Sub-Lease may offer you a higher level of asset protection.

• RESIDENTIAL LEASE* – for residential tenants: fixed-term (e.g., 1-year, 6-months, etc.) or month-to-month– For tenants and rental properties subject to the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act.
  • For individuals who own and manage their own rental properties, I offer two types of lease forms:
    • Custom-Drafted Residential Rental Agreement – custom-drafted specifically for you and your rental property(ies).
      • GUARANTEED to get you more money than any other lease form.
      • Drafted to protect you — the landlord.
      • Drafted with MANY “landlord friendly” provisions you won’t find elsewhere.
    • Readymade Residential Rental Agreement – ALL NEW FOR 2020
      • Includes all notices required by State and Federal law
      • Includes all addenda that you will need
      • Includes “landlord friendly” provisions
    • Master Lease and Sub-Lease may offer you a higher level of asset protection.
  • For real estate brokers who manage rental properties for owners.
    • Custom-Drafted Residential Rental Agreement for a Brokerage – custom-drafted to better protect your landlord clients and YOU.
    •  Readymade Form – My 2020 Supplement to the AAR October 2019 Residential Lease Agreement – this makes the AAR form MUCH BETTER for the owner/landlord.

• COMMERCIAL LEASE (e.g., gross rent, triple-net, etc.) – Call me to discuss this service.

* A “Residential Lease” is subject to the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. This is the most common type of lease form. This is used when a person (landlord) rents to another person (tenant) on a month-to-month basis or on a fixed-term basis (e.g., 6 months, 1 year, etc.).

** A “Short-Term Rental Agreement” IS NOT subject to the Arizona Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. This is used when a person (owner) rents to another person (guest) for a short period of time (e.g., days or weeks). This form is used for vacation rentals and/or recreational lodging. This form is typically used when offering short-term rental property on VRBO, Airbnb, FlipKey, HomeAway, and similar sites, but can also be used without using any online platform.
