A New Hampshire lease agreement binds both the landlord and tenant to the terms outlined in the rental contract. This includes the rent amount and the responsibilities of each party. The lease cannot be terminated unless both parties agree to cancel it.

Rental Application – Before authorizing an agreement, a landlord often uses a rental agreement that checks the tenant’s credit report and income to ensure they are suitable renters.
