A lease holds a binding agreement between the landlord and tenant for the duration of the term of the lease. If a tenant is renting the property or unit on a month-to-month basis then the landlord could make changes to the terms of the month-to-month tenancy at any time, given proper notice (for month-to-month it would be 30 days before the next rent is due). This could mean a sudden rent hike or other changes like no longer allowing pets.
Signing the lease binds both parties to the agreement and makes the document itself (notwithstanding it's various clauses and sections) enforceable in a court of law.
Lease agreements are highly important records for a property, both for the landlord and the tenant. Hence, witnesses are definitely required by the director to sign lease agreements.
A lease IS a contract. If you did not sign it, you do not have a lease.
In Missouri, the legal age to enter into a contract, including a lease agreement, is 18. Therefore, a 19 year old is legally able to sign a lease in Missouri. It is important to read and understand the terms of the lease agreement before signing.
