Canadian Landlord signing lease agreement with 2 Canadian Renters.

What’s in the lease agreement form?

  • A free lease agreement template for Landlords and Tenants.

  • Editable sections for Landlord, Tenant, and Property details.

  • Sections covering rent specifics, security deposits, late fees, occupants, and additional details.

  • Provisions for lease duration, services and utilities, as well as maintenance responsibilities.

Additional terms to add to standard lease Agreements

At FrontLobby, we understand that many provinces require landlords to use standard lease agreements, but there’s also flexibility to add terms that provide extra protection and align with the specific needs of your property. For example, Ontario’s Residential Tenancy Agreement allows landlords to include Additional Terms in Section 15. It's important to ensure that any additional clauses do not conflict with the standard lease provisions.

Below, we’ve compiled a list of recommended additional terms that landlords can consider when drafting their leases, ensuring compliance with Standard Lease requirements in most provinces. You can choose the clauses that best suit your property and unique circumstances.

Help Tenants improve their credit score by reporting rent payments to the Credit Bureaus.

The premises are designated for residential use only, and Tenants are not permitted to operate a home business that could increase traffic or expose the Landlord to additional liability.

The Landlord guarantees that all appliances listed in this lease will be in good working order at the start of the lease term. Tenants are responsible for maintaining the appliances and furnishings in a clean and functional condition at their own expense.

Smoking of cigarettes and cannabis is strictly prohibited indoors. The use of illegal drugs is also prohibited within the property. This applies to both the Tenants and their guests.

 

Tenants must comply with municipal noise and disturbance bylaws. This includes refraining from playing loud music or hosting loud gatherings after 11:00 p.m. Repeated noise complaints may result in legal action by the Landlord.

Tenants may assign or sublet the rental unit only with the Landlord’s consent. The number of occupants must comply with local occupancy bylaws.

Tenants are not permitted to list the property or any part of it for short-term rentals, such as on AirBnB, without the express consent of the Landlord.

Tenants are responsible for any damage to the rental property caused by themselves, their guests, or anyone living in the rental unit. This includes damage caused intentionally or through negligence. Tenants must notify the Landlord and seek approval before making major alterations, such as adding built-in shelves or painting.

The Tenants agree to a $100 monthly rent reduction from $_____ to $_____ in exchange for regular maintenance of the property, including snow shoveling and lawn mowing at least once a month. If this maintenance is not performed, the Landlord reserves the right to charge the full rent of $_____ and hire a maintenance service.

If the Tenants will be absent from the property for 30 days or more, they must notify the Landlord, who is then allowed to enter the unit for property maintenance, inspections, and necessary repairs.

It's a good concept. Good tenants get a boosted credit score and the bad ones get a bad score. Totally fair. Best part of all is it gives other landlords a head's up.

I used Front Lobby to register my tenant lease. Those who paid on time have really appreciate the positive impact of their credit. One tenant who owed me over $30k recently paid their debt as they were well aware that their credit was being negatively affected.

Why is a residential tenancy agreement form essential for landlords?

At FrontLobby, we stress the importance of using the correct Residential Tenant Agreement form if your province provides one. In some provinces, landlords are required to use this form, and tenants may withhold one month’s rent if they do not receive a copy of the standard lease.

Whether you’re leasing an apartment annually or renting out a unit on a month-to-month basis, a well-structured residential tenancy agreement is crucial. It outlines the responsibilities of both the landlord and tenants, helping to prevent disputes and protecting you legally if issues arise.
