Write your own lease, make it easy to get your deposit.

[Gobbler]

Thai leases suck. Russian leases suck.  And Chinese? I would never rent from Chinese landlords. 

 

My current condo owner is the best of the best. He comes to visit me once a month. Anything that needs fixing, he fixes.  He cleans my air conditioners (4)  too. 

 

I wrote my lease. It doesn't terminate. I wrote a three-year lease that only terminates once either party advises the other with two months' notice. 

 

I also wrote that the two-year deposit is depleted in the second year because it is applied equally to the rent. I paid less rent in the second year. Now, he has only a one-year deposit. 

 

I fixed the glaring errors in Thai leases and have the best landlord in Thailand.
