Yes! The married couple is considered a "community" and are. . . . .both. . . . .liable for the rent and upholding the lease!
Was the lease supposed to be a month-to-month lease or for a year or longer?
the lease will have to be honoured, if the tenants do not get along, then it could be broken by paying a penalty for the remainder of the lease when one or both move, if the lease is a month- to- month then a 2 month written letter must be signed by both parties to notify the landlord.
The purpose of notarizing is to verify that a signature belongs to the person it claims to belong to. So, when the landlord signs, he could have the notary stamp it, but I don't know why he would.
No. That was not a breach by the tenants.
No.
Probably not. But, if this was an attempt by the signer to create a loophole for getting out of the lease later, a judge might hold the person to it.
If this noise is a problem for other tenants, the landlord may be in violation of the lease with the other tenants. This would give them a reason to leave before their lease is up.
They have violated the lease contract and can be held liable for damages.
Yes, a lease is a signed contract
If the lease has expired and the co-signer has NOT signed the month-to-month agreement, the co-signer should be off the hook.
Simple lease agreements need to be signed before moving into a new flat or house. A lease must be signed by both parties, and the lease does not need to be co-signed by a witness.
That is up to the landlord.
