A lease agreement is typically made for a fixed term. In most cases, at the end of the lease term, the landlord and tenant will either enter a new lease or the tenant will vacate the premises. Under certain circumstances the parties may wish to extend the lease past the expiration date but not enter into an entirely new lease. In this case, the landlord and tenant should enter into a Lease Extension Agreement.

A Lease Extension Agreement allows the parties to incorporate the controlling provisions of the original lease. This agreement will set forth the extension terms in writing and avoid any problems and misunderstandings between the parties surrounding the lease extension.

Among others, this form includes the following provisions:
  • Extension of the Lease Term
  • Lease Payments
  • Obligations Under the Lease

Frequently Asked Questions

A Lease Extension Agreement is a legal document that allows a landlord and tenant to extend the duration of an existing lease without creating a new lease. It incorporates the terms of the original lease and specifies the new extension terms.

This form should be used when both the landlord and tenant agree to extend the lease term beyond its original expiration date. It is particularly useful when the parties do not wish to enter into a new lease agreement.

Generally, the Lease Extension Agreement will maintain the original lease terms. However, if both parties agree, certain terms can be modified, but this should be clearly stated in the agreement.

Yes, once signed by both parties, the Lease Extension Agreement is legally binding. It is important for both the landlord and tenant to understand their obligations under the agreement.

If you do not use a Lease Extension Agreement and continue to occupy the property after the lease expires, you may be considered a tenant at will, which can lead to legal complications or eviction risks.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who are currently renting a property may find themselves in a situation where they wish to extend their lease without entering into a new agreement. This Lease Extension Agreement allows them to continue their tenancy under the same terms while avoiding the hassle of negotiating a new lease.
  • Landlords looking to retain reliable tenants can utilize this form to extend the lease term. By formalizing the extension, landlords can ensure that both parties are clear on their obligations and the terms of the lease, thus preventing potential disputes.
  • In cases where a tenant needs more time to secure a new property, this agreement serves as a practical solution. It provides a legal framework to extend the tenancy period, ensuring that the tenant has a stable living situation while they search for a new home.
  • For those who have a good relationship with their landlord, this agreement can help maintain that positive dynamic. By agreeing to extend the lease, both parties can avoid the uncertainty and stress that often accompanies moving out and finding new tenants.
  • Situations requiring a lease extension due to unforeseen circumstances, such as job relocations or family matters, can benefit from this form. It allows tenants to remain in their current residence while addressing their personal situations without the need for a new lease.

Do Not Use If:

  • โ€“ This form is not appropriate if the landlord and tenant have decided to terminate the lease instead of extending it. In such cases, a lease termination agreement would be more suitable.
  • โ€“ If the parties wish to make significant changes to the lease terms, such as increasing rent or altering key obligations, a new lease agreement should be drafted instead of using this form.
  • โ€“ In situations where the tenant has violated lease terms or is facing eviction, this agreement would not be appropriate as it does not address any legal disputes or breaches.
  • โ€“ If the property is being sold or transferred to a new owner, a Lease Extension Agreement may not be suitable since the new owner may wish to establish new terms with the tenant.
  • โ€“ For tenants who are looking to move out and do not wish to extend their lease, this form would not be necessary and could complicate their moving process.
