What is an Addendum To Rental Agreement?

An addendum to rental agreement is a separate legal document to the standard rental agreement that lays out additional rules or obligations. This document is prepared by the landlord or lessor and must be signed by the renter/tenant or lessee in order to be valid.

An addendum to rental agreement can cover anything that is not already laid out in the rental agreement. It will generally include additional rules or restrictions on the tenant, but may also dictate additional benefits to the tenant in exchange for these increased obligations.
