The Kentucky standard residential lease agreement focuses on a one (1) year term with monthly payments typically made on the first (1st) of every month. In order for the rental contract to go into effect, both the landlord and tenant must agree on terms and authorize the document with both their signatures. It is advised that the tenant complete a rental application before the landlord binds themselves into an agreement to ensure that the tenant’s financial and employment histories are satisfactory. Furthermore, the landlord can request that the tenant pay a refundable security deposit to cover any potential damages.
