Protect yourself and your property with a Mold Addendum Educate your tenants about mold and mildew maintenance and care. Most tenants don't think about mold or mildew until it becomes a problem to complain about. There are different types of mold and mildew and can usually be avioded with proper climate control and cleaning. The Mold Addendum will emphasize the importance of avoiding mold and mildew and also places the responsibility and liability on the tenant for damages and expenses resulting from mold and mildew neglect. Signing this form in addition to the lease will place a duty upon your new tenant to protect your property from mold.

A Brief Guide to Mold, Moisture, and Your Home. This booklet from the EPA tells you and tenants what you need to know about mold and how to treat it. You can view the entire booklet here through Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can also print it on normal letter size paper and put the booklet together. After printing, you can also reproduce larger quantities of it on a copy machine in color or in black and white.

I have. Sometimes basements and garages leak or are subject to moisture and mildew and can cause damage to personal property. As required in The LPA Lease, renter's insurance should cover damages to tenant property, but sometimes tenants neglect to maintain a renter's insurance policy. By excluding basements and garages from being part of the rental, we are able to protect ourselves from typical tenant problems that are common to those areas. We find this clause is most helpful in leases for single family home rentals, but has also been successful in multi family dwellings. >>> Just copy and paste into your lease document. (If you already use The LPA Lease, the clause is already there.)
"My sister's car needs to be fixed, so we're spending the rent to do that. I can pay you by next month." - Peg Blair, Business Manager "You are so old and so rich you don't even need my money. What are you gonna do- go out and get your Mercedes waxed with it?" No, but I think I'll spend his security deposit on my attorneys fee to evict that foul mouthed good for nothing! - Estelle, KY "I was going to give you rent but you gave me attitude when I didn’t give you rent for last month." I started the eviction process. - ED, Lehighton, Pa "Come see what I did for you. You won't want the rent when you see this!" Oh my God! She painted everything fire engine red --- glossy! All my beautiful crown moldings and wood work. Her deposit will never be enough to restore it. - Louis, Tustin, CA
