What if the tenant won’t sign the lease?
At Condo Alexandria we use the standard deed of lease as written by the Northern Virginia Association of Realtors. There’s not much in there that would surprise a tenant. It’s pretty straight-forward: if you pay you stay.
Every now so often we encounter a tenant who won’t sign the lease or who wants to renegotiate the terms of the lease. When this happens our policy is pretty simple: we go on to the next qualified tenant. Life’s much to short to deal with problem people. Problem tenants at the outset are invariably problem tenants later on.
