The Month To Month Lease Agreement is a vital legal document used in Nigerian property transactions where flexibility in tenancy duration is desired. It's particularly suitable for situations requiring short-term or indefinite-length arrangements, such as temporary relocations or trial periods for commercial spaces. The agreement incorporates essential provisions required by Nigerian federal and state property laws, including the Recovery of Premises Act and state-specific tenancy regulations. It details rent payment terms, maintenance responsibilities, notice periods for termination, and other crucial aspects of the landlord-tenant relationship. This type of agreement offers greater flexibility compared to fixed-term leases while maintaining legal protections for all parties involved.
