A written agreement substantially reduces disputes about price, duration, deposit and condition. Do not confuse a general writing requirement for apartments with special form rules for other property. The Code separately requires written termination of residential letting.
Practical example
The parties orally agreed a year, but the owner says one month. A transfer may prove the price, not every term.
What to do
Specify parties, property, term, payments, expenses and termination, with a handover record. Check notarisation or registration requirements for the arrangement; their absence does not automatically invalidate every tenancy.
