An Alaska lease agreement is a legal form that is used when Landlords rent out their property to Tenants in exchange for monthly rent payments. The Landlord will draft the lease after going over the rental terms with the Tenant. Once the lease is signed by both parties, they are both obligated to comply with its terms until the end of the lease period.

Rental Application – Before signing lease agreement the Landlord will run a background check by using a rental application.
