A California standard residential lease agreement creates a landlord-tenant arrangement whereby a liveable space is rented in exchange for payments, usually due in monthly installments. Prior to entering a formal contract, the landlord may set their desired terms for the tenancy and all applicable rental costs. Both parties shall negotiate until reaching a mutual accord that sets the terms and conditions for the lease’s duration. After signing, the tenant typically pays the first month’s rent as well as any deposit the landlord requires for damages the property may incur during the tenancy.
