An Arkansas standard residential lease agreement is a legally binding contract that allows a tenant to occupy a property in exchange for monthly rent. This obligates each party to the terms written within it. Landlords must provide a safe habitable residence while tenants must observe the rules of the property and refrain from damaging the rented space. Each can hold the other to their respective roles once this lease has been signed. By possessing a signed agreement a certain level of security and protection will accompany the obligations each party must fulfill.
