Why a Separate Rental Agreement for Garages Makes Sense
Many landlords rent out garages informally or combine them with a residential lease. However, a separate garage rental agreement offers significant legal advantages. If the parking space is rented independently of the apartment, strict residential tenancy laws with their extensive tenant protections do not apply.
This gives landlords much more flexible notice periods and easier rent adjustments. If disagreements arise, the tenancy can be dissolved much more easily than with a coupled lease of apartment and parking space.
- No automatic connection to residential tenancy laws for separate agreements
- Easier termination options for both contracting parties
- More flexible design of rent prices, utilities, and usage rules
