Frequently Asked Questions

Who needs a Lease Agreement in Kansas?

Anyone who rents real estate needs a Lease Agreement. This is true whether you rent a single-family home, apartment, duplex, or condo. The Lease is the document that outlines all terms of the rental relationship. It also protects the Landlord, or lessor, and Tenant, or lessee, should there be any disputes.

While a basic Lease form or generic, fillable Lease is better than nothing, it can leave Landlords without the complete protection that they need. A simple state agreement, like the one offered by the Kansas Association of Realtors, is better but can still leave Landlords unprotected.

To make sure that you and your Rental Unit are protected, it’s vital to have a thorough state-specific Lease Agreement in place before handing over possession of the property.
