The Lease And Purchase Agreement is a sophisticated legal instrument used in Qatar when parties wish to combine property rental with a future purchase arrangement. This document is particularly useful in situations where immediate purchase is not feasible or desired, but there is a clear intention for eventual property transfer. It must comply with Qatar's strict real estate regulations, including Law No. 22 of 2004 (Civil Code) and Law No. 14 of 1964 (Real Estate Registration Law). The agreement is commonly used in both commercial and residential contexts, providing flexibility while ensuring legal protection for all parties. It includes comprehensive provisions for the lease period, purchase terms, property maintenance, regulatory compliance, and the specific mechanisms for transitioning from lease to ownership. Special considerations are incorporated for foreign ownership restrictions under Law No. 17 of 2004 when applicable.
