What Every Lease Should Include in 2025

Your lease is more than a contract—it’s your first line of protection. In 2025, modern leases need to go beyond basic terms.

Must-Have Clauses:

1. Digital payment expectations

2. Clear late fee structure

3. Communication preferences (email, text, portal)

4. Pet policies

5. Maintenance responsibilities

6. Data privacy (especially with smart devices)
