Should I Sign This Tenancy Agreement? by vision202020(op): 9:15am On May 12, 2021
So I decided to rent a better apartment for myself. So my landlord gave me this tenancy agreement to sign. This is my first time of signing such since I have been renting house so I decided to bring it here for the Learned and Legal practitioners to help me go through it before signing.
Thanks

Fair enough, I'd sign this. There's nothing outrageous here. I think experience has taught the landlord some serious lessons.

I have no problem with the agreement. I am just looking for hidden clause that may go against me in future in the agreement.
The landlord has issues with the previous tenants and he has vowed never to accept people of that tribe again. The first question he asked me when I showed interest in the house is my tribe

The agreement is okay except for number 4, where it states that the landlord can enter your apartment at any time....... You are about to give away your privacy.

Is the house in Banana Island or Maitama? Why all the long grammar just to stay somewhere for a year?

Re: Should I Sign This Tenancy Agreement? by Synord(m):
This is a poorly drafted and ambiguous agreement .

Clause b3 and b4 are ambiguous . The attention aspect of the agreement is ambiguous , unneeded and poorly drafted .


What you are asking for is a professional legal advice which I can offer but of course, it is not free .

I would advise you don’t sign the agreement and if you need proper reasons as to why and what to do next , you can contact me via Pm or seek a nearby lawyer .

Remember , ignorance of the law is not an excuse and violenti non fit injuria .

This must be changed.

The landlord does not have right to enter his premises once payment is made without his permission.

Why do you want someone to work for you for free? Go and pay a lawyer.

Nothing stands out significantly. Sometimes state law also makes some lease clauses unenforceable
