In order to provide you with attentive service, we have summarized common questions and answers for housing lease agreement (hereinafter referred to as the rental contract or contract) for your reference. We recommend that students read the rental contract and other relevant documents carefully. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact your community office or DTN International. 1. What is a house lease agreement (hereinafter referred to as a rental contract or contract)? The rental contract is the most important document in the rental relationship, and it has detailed descriptions of many important issues, such as: the length of the lease, the monthly rent, the deposit, the number of people who can live in each apartment, and who will pay for water / electricity / gas / Internet / garbage / TV signals and other costs, whether pets are allowed, parking and other information. 2. Where is the address of my apartment (LEASED PREMISE)? In the upper right corner of the rental contract homepage, under LEASED PREMISE is your apartment's address information, including street name, apartment unit room number, etc. 3. How long is my apartment? In the first clause of the rental contract, there are instructions for the date of moving in (Beginning) and the date of moving out (Ending). The settings for the move-in and move-out dates are basically the same as the MSU semester. The start and end of the contract are both at 12 noon on the day. If you are studying at another school, please make sure the move-in and move-out dates are appropriate. 4. How much rent should I pay? When is it due? A rental contract is a long-term lease agreement. The rent is paid in monthly instalments throughout the lease term. Whenever you move into an apartment, make your first payment before the contract's move-in date (eg Beginning date is 8/1, the first due day is 7/1, and the first rent is the last year of the next year Monthly rent for July). Even if you move into the apartment after the contracted date of move-in, the first payment and other payment dates remain the same (in short, the first payment date is based on the Beginning date on the lease, not the actual check-in date). The first clause of the contract specifies the first payment of the rent and deadline, monthly rent and payment deadline, the last amount to be paid and the deadline, and a detailed description of how to pay. These are the costs that you and your roommate share. 5. Can my roommate and I pay the rent separately? For the convenience of our residents, we accept that you and your roommate pay the rent separately. But Article 10 of the contract stipulates that the responsibilities of the contract are common. In addition to paying your part of the rent, if your roommate does not pay their rent on time, all tenants on the same contract are responsible for paying the remaining arrears except for the late fee. 6. Is there any consequence of paying the rent late? The rent must be paid on or before the 4th of each month (for example: rent for September needs to be paid by September 4th).

If you have not paid all the balance in your account on the 15th of the month, an additional late fee of $ 75 will be incurred. Article 3 of the rental contract has a detailed description of the late fees and other costs incurred, including bank refund check fees and other costs due to insufficient bank balances in the tenant. As before, because the contractual responsibilities are common, all tenants are responsible for paying all the arrears in their apartment account. In addition, if the arrears have not been paid after 8 days, the apartment office will take legal measures, including court summons, removal of personal belongings, etc. All relevant legal costs incurred due to rent arrears will be borne by the tenant. 7.

Why recommend Renter ’s Insurance? Renter ’s Insurance is a small investment for big peace of mind. Apartment insurance does not include Renter ’s Insurance. It is a wise choice to purchase personal property insurance in advance if your property is damaged, lost, or stolen.
