So here's the typed up 'agreement' between us and FMIL (aka tenant and landlord)
I thought you girls might want to see - just for $h*ts and giggles ![]()
AGREEMENT
September 1, 2008 – August 31, 2010
Tenant: Jimmy and Marisa
Address: 58 F******* Lane
C*********, NY
Rent: $1200 per month beginning September 2008. This will be the rent for 2 years – after 2 years it MAY go up if the taxes or homeowners insurance go up.
- The rental due date will be sometime between the 1st and the 15th of the month – to be determined a little later.
- Rent does not include any utilities and we must also pay (for a minimum of 1 year) for a landscaper to come and take care of the lawns.
- It is an open lease agreement – we can choose to leave anytime, as long as we give 2 months’ notice. Mom & Dad could also choose to evict us at any time, with 2 months’ notice.
Mom & Dad: Responsible for the homeowners insurance and the taxes.
- We are responsible for the first $300 of any major maintenance/repairs (excluding the washer and dryer), and then Mom & Dad will pay the rest.
- Mom will start cleaning out Grandpa & Grandma’s things beginning this coming weekend (May 17).
- One room upstairs will be utilized just for Mom & Dad’s storage. No garbage in the garage – start going thru boxes as soon as you can.
- If we choose to get a dumpster, we will split the price with Mom & Dad.
Marisa & Jimmy: We are allowed to keep the truck in the driveway, as long as it’s kept covered when not being worked on.
- We are to start cleaning up everything that is ours in the house.
- Jimmy will finish spackling and painting the upstairs hallway. MAYBE paint ceilings.
- After Jimmy finishes upstairs hallway and we clean up, we will have an appraisal done on the house.
Addendum:
- No additional pets without prior approval. Absolutely no breeds not covered by Homeowner’s insurance – including, but not limited to, Pitbulls, Doberman Pinschers, and Rottweillers.
No major home improvements/renovations without permission.
Jimmy's the one who made me write everything down. FMIL added the 'Addendum' at the end but that was all. Welcome home![]()
