Lease relationships, especially residential rentals, are a frequent source of legal disputes. Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, a professionally drafted agreement is the foundation of a smooth cooperation. Template contracts downloaded from the internet often fail to provide adequate protection for unexpected situations, such as utility arrears, property damage, or a refusal to vacate the premises.
Why a Professional Lease Agreement is Essential
Current Hungarian laws (the Civil Code and the Housing Act) set strict frameworks for lease relationships. Our Law Office helps ensure that every point of your contract complies with legislation while remains flexible enough to handle the unique needs of the parties.
We pay particular attention to:
- Eviction Declaration (Notarized Document): For landlords, the highest level of security is provided by a unilateral declaration of commitment made by the tenant before a notary public. This allows for direct enforcement if the tenant refuses to move out after the termination of the lease.
- Security Deposit (Caution): The amount and use of the deposit must be precisely recorded, including the conditions for its return.
- Utilities and Cost Bearing: Who pays the common charges? How are meter readings recorded? Transparent accounting prevents disputes.
- Termination with Immediate Effect: We define the serious breaches of contract that result in immediate termination and potential claims for damages.
