Various federal, state, and local laws govern the landlord/tenant relationship and impose various legal requirements or duties upon landlords. For example, state law may require landlords to maintain leased residential property in a habitable condition, obligating them to conduct certain repairs or maintenance. State and federal laws also prohibit discrimination in residential leasing. Finally, state and local building codes may create various safety requirements for landlords to follow for their properties. Landlords may also be accountable for obtaining various licenses or permits before they lease their properties to tenants.
Under the law, written lease agreements can govern numerous aspects of the landlord/tenant relationship, establishing various rights and responsibilities that landlords and tenants have to one another. The different laws and regulations that apply to residential or commercial leasing make it critical for landlords and property managers to have experienced counsel who can help them manage the legal challenges that can arise from owning and operating any type of rental property.
