Hi all. Wondering if someone could provide some legal advice.
So, I've got a property that's tenanted via a property management company.
The tenant's lease is about to end, and I've offered the tenant to continue their lease on my property for another 12 months.
I've also mentioned that there will be a rent increase.
However, there was a misunderstanding with the management company, and when the tenant came in to sign the new lease agreement, the lease document still had the old rent amount.
This was about a month ago, and I was just informed of this stuff-up today.
So, my question is, is it legal for me to ask the tenant to sign a new lease agreement with the new rental amount, even though he had already signed one previously?
Thanks. Much appreciated.
