Sample Living with Your Landlord Agreement for Alberta RentersLiving With Your Landlord Agreement • May 11th, 2012
A written agreement helps you to avoid problems. If a tenant shares living space with their landlord (for example, rents a bedroom in the landlord’s home), then the Residential Tenancies Act does not apply, so a written agreement is the best protection that a landlord and a tenant can have. In a room rental situation, neither the landlord nor the tenant has to follow the rules contained in the law. This means that if you are renting a room from your landlord, you may find yourself evicted with little notice. If you are a landlord, you may find it difficult to collect unpaid rent, or keep a deposit, without having a written agreement.
