Rent Arbitration Sample Clauses

The Rent Arbitration clause establishes a process for resolving disputes over the amount of rent payable under a lease or rental agreement. Typically, if the landlord and tenant cannot agree on a new rent amount—often during rent review periods—an independent arbitrator is appointed to determine a fair market rent. This mechanism ensures that disagreements over rent do not lead to prolonged conflict or litigation, providing a neutral and efficient way to settle disputes and maintain the continuity of the tenancy.
