A Tennessee room rental agreement is a formal document that sets out the rules for individuals sharing a residence. This agreement details how costs will be divided and outlines responsibilities for maintaining the premises. It’s important for all roommates to carefully review the agreement before signing, as it becomes a legally binding contract once signed.
When looking for suitable subtenants, the primary tenant should use a rental application to collect information from potential candidates. They can use this information to determine the individual’s likelihood to pay rent on time and be a responsible cohabitant.
The Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (Title 66, Chapter 28 of the Tennessee Code) does not provide a specific statute for this matter; a guest typically becomes a tenant either after they start paying rent to occupy the property or as specified in the lease agreement.
