What does lease law cover?
Lease law covers the renting of homes and business premises, lease agreements, rent amount and review, termination and cancellation, rental deposit, tenant and landlord rights and obligations, and rental disputes. Lease law also covers the renting of holiday homes and the activities of rental agencies.
Landlord's rights
The landlord has the right to receive rent on the agreed date, the right to require the tenant to maintain the property, and the right to terminate the lease agreement on legal grounds. The landlord can also demand the use of the rental deposit if the tenant has neglected their obligations. A lawyer advises on landlord's rights and assists with rental disputes.
Tenant's rights
The tenant has the right to live in the rental property as agreed, the right to require the landlord to maintain the property, and the right to terminate the lease agreement with notice. The tenant is entitled to get the rental deposit back when the agreement ends, unless the landlord has grounds to retain it. A lawyer advises on tenant's rights and assists with rental disputes.
Lease law in Spain
Spanish lease legislation differs from Finnish legislation – notice periods, rent review and tenant protection are different. For Finns, renting a home or holiday home in Spain can be a surprise if the agreement is not properly drafted. Our lawyers help with Spanish lease agreements – we serve in Finnish and Spanish.
