The rental period for a home or premises applies for an indefinite period, as long as the rental agreement does not state otherwise. A rental agreement can also be for a fixed term.
The Tenancy Act defines a rental agreement as a letting of a house or apartment in return for financial compensation. There are no formal requirements for how a rental agreement must be drafted. A rental agreement must be in writing if the landlord or tenant demands this.
A tenancy is normally rented out for an indefinite period, which means that the rental relationship applies until the landlord or tenant terminates the agreement. The rental agreement can also be rented out for a fixed period. In such cases, the rental relationship ends when the specified time has been reached.
A rental agreement that runs for an indefinite period has, according to the Tenancy Act, a notice period of three months. If the tenant misbehaves, for example by disturbing their neighbors or failing to pay the rent on time, the security of tenure can be broken. This means that the landlord gains the right to terminate the tenant. The security of tenure can also be broken if the residential building in which the tenant lives is to be demolished or substantially rebuilt.
The landlord has a so-called maintenance obligation, which means that they are obliged to ensure that the home is in good condition. The landlord shall therefore regularly check that appliances in the home work and that walls, ceilings and floors are in good condition. Otherwise, this should be remedied. If there are defects or faults in the apartment that are not due to the tenant, the tenant has the right to a reduced rent. If a landlord does not remedy certain types of defects and deficiencies, the tenant may have the right to terminate the rental agreement. During the period that the tenant rents the home from the landlord, the tenant must be careful and ensure that the apartment is kept clean and free of pests. The tenant is obliged to report any damage that occurs in the apartment, which means that the landlord must be notified. Any house rules, such as not playing music too loudly, must be observed. The tenant is also responsible for damage and breaches of the rules that friends or family who visit the apartment cause.
