LEAS-ESSENTIALS
Presented by: Catherine F. Downing, Esq., Law Offices of Catherine F. Downing & Associates
How well do you understand the terms of your Lease or Occupancy Agreement? Do you know the difference between a pet and an assistance animal? When can you get into your apartments without getting into trouble? Who exactly do you have living in your units? Do you want to know more? Then this program is for you!
A multi-part discussion about the basics of the landlord resident relationship, presented in separate stand-alone sessions, using plain “non-legalese” language and real-life examples. You are welcome to attend one or all of these sessions and you can expect to walk away with a thorough understanding of the basics of these issues, which can help you improve your relationship with your residents.

2.UNDERSTANDING THE RULES OF THE GAME: THE RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PARTIES TO THE LEASE
In this session, we will explore the most important aspects of the contract between the resident and the owner, including a plain language explanation of those terms. There is a lot more to the lease than just how much rent is to be paid. Understanding the rights and responsibilities of the parties will help keep you sane, because you will be able to explain the terms to your residents in a commonsense way.
