September 2017: Rental Agreement Rundown
In March 2017 we released our new rental forms to be easier to read and include new features like: a utilities table, prohibition of AirBnB, prohibition of Marijuana growing, friendlier terminology (Tenant > Resident), clear list of “will” and “will not”, and a library of optional clauses. Attorney Jordana Greenman will be reviewing these features in-depth, telling us the best ways to use our rental forms, and giving us tips and tricks for the MassLandlords forms. It’s likely that a majority of landlords’ rental forms are out-of-date due to changes in marijuana laws, just cause eviction/rent control and the infamous AirBnB. So why pay for an attorney to draft a rental agreement when Masslandlords members get ours for free!
