The Month To Month Lease Agreement is a fundamental document in Philippine property law, designed for situations requiring flexible rental arrangements while maintaining legal protection for both parties. It's particularly useful for temporary housing needs, transitional periods, or when parties prefer not to commit to a long-term lease. The agreement must comply with the Civil Code of the Philippines, the Rent Control Act, and other relevant local regulations. It typically includes comprehensive terms covering rent payments, security deposits, maintenance responsibilities, utilities, access rights, and termination procedures. This type of agreement is distinct from fixed-term leases as it automatically renews each month unless proper notice is given by either party, providing flexibility while ensuring legal compliance and protection under Philippine jurisdiction.
