Slip this into your lease

Look, we get it.

Google is free.

And you've got a printer.

But here's the thing:

Leases are legal documents (shocker, right?!?)

And when things go sideways with a tenant, that "cut-and-paste" lease from 2009 ain't saving you.

So, your tenant toured the place, smiled, nodded, and signed on the dotted line.

A few weeks later, they're mad there's no outlet in the perfect spot for the lava lamp.

But wait... didn't they inspect everything - twice?

Here's your move:

Slip something like this into your lease:

Tenant agrees having inspected the property and it's suitable for their needs.

Boom.

No more "But I didn't know there wasn't an outlet here" drama.
