You can easily create a Lease Amendment by filling out LawDepot's questionnaire. Using our template will ensure you complete the necessary steps:
1. State the type of lease you’re amending
Start your Lease Amendment by stating if you’re amending a Tenancy Agreement or a Commercial Lease Agreement.
In your Lease Amendment, state if the party is an individual or company for each landlord and tenant. Also, provide the party's full name by writing the name exactly as it appears in the original Tenancy Agreement.
You only need to include the names of the tenants, not every person occupying the property. The tenant is the adult who has signed the Tenancy Agreement and is legally responsible for paying the rent. Other people living in or using the property are considered occupants. Occupants don't need to be included in the Lease Amendment.
3. Include the property’s address
Make sure you include the property's address to clarify which property the document is referring to. Your Lease Amendment should consist of the property's:
- Street
- City/Town
- County
- Eircode
4. State the signing date of the original lease and whether you've amended it in the past
Providing the date that the landlord and tenant signed the original Tenancy Agreement also clarifies which agreement you’re altering with your Lease Amendment.
Also, state how many times you've amended the Tenancy Agreement in the past.
5. Describe the new amendments
Our Lease Amendment allows you to make up to five amendments. List and describe the modifications you’re making to your Tenancy Agreement.
Try to limit your clauses to one paragraph each when describing the amendments. Also, use terms like “landlord” and “tenant” instead of personal pronouns (i.e. we, you, they, our, etc.) to reduce any confusion.
6. Include additional details, if necessary
You can add more clauses to your Lease Amendment if there is any additional information it doesn’t cover.
7. Provide the signing date
Include the signing date if you know when the landlord and tenant will be signing the Lease Amendment. If you're unsure of the date, we provide a blank space in your document so you can add it later.
