What must be included in the tenancy addendum for approval?

The inclusion of the terms of the rental agreement in the tenancy addendum is essential because this document serves to clarify the responsibilities and obligations of both the landlord and the tenant. The terms outlined in the rental agreement typically cover aspects such as the amount of rent, the payment schedule, the duration of the lease, and any rules or regulations specific to the rental property.

Having these terms clearly stated in the addendum helps ensure that both parties have a mutual understanding of what is expected, which can prevent disputes down the line. Additionally, the tenancy addendum serves as a formal record that ties the Housing Choice Voucher program requirements to the rental agreement, making it vital for compliance and program integrity.

Including details such as previous owners or records of tenant behavior is not necessary for the tenancy addendum itself because those factors do not directly pertain to the current rental agreement terms. Emergency contact information, while helpful in many situations, is also not a mandated requirement within the context of the tenancy addendum.
