Rental of an apartment or house: rights and obligations of the parties

The tenant has the right to confidential use of the property, and the owner cannot enter the apartment without their consent, except in emergency situations.

The client also has the right to safe living conditions, including the proper technical state of electricity, gas, and sanitary systems.

It is important to have the right to timely elimination of malfunctions and protection from unjustified rent increases if not stipulated by the contract or law.

Tenant’s obligations: payment, maintenance and living rules

The main obligation of the tenant is timely payment of rent and utility bills.
The tenant is obliged to keep the property in proper condition and notify the owner about the need for repairs or technical issues.
It is also necessary to follow the rules of residence in the building and maintain peace and order without disturbing the rights of neighbors.

Rental agreement terms: duration, rent, deposit, early termination

The rental agreement must clearly define the term of validity, conditions of extension, or early termination.
The document must specify the rent amount, the payment procedure, and the deposit size (usually up to two monthly payments), as well as the conditions for its return.
The law provides for the possibility of early termination of the agreement if the property has serious defects that prevent its use.

Support of a rental agreement in Poland includes three key aspects

Protection of tenant’s rights — privacy, safe housing, and fair conditions.
Fulfillment of tenant’s obligations, which minimizes the risk of contract termination.
Transparency of agreement terms — clarity in duration, payment, deposit, and termination options.
