What is an occasional lease?

Occasional lease is a form of tenancy that provides the landlord with a significantly faster pathway to recover their property if the tenant fails to fulfill the contract. Its key element is the designation of an alternative premises to which the tenant can move in the event of eviction. If the tenant does not have such a property, the address is provided by our partner service, okazjonalny.info, which you can order through [simpl.rent](https://staging.simpl.rent/en/occasional-lease).

How does occasional lease protect the landlord?

It happens that a tenant stops paying rent and refuses to vacate the property. Under standard tenancy, they are protected by the provisions of the Act on the Protection of Tenants' Rights – the landlord cannot force them to move out "on their own," and court proceedings can drag on for up to several years. An occasional lease agreement changes this situation thanks to the tenant's declaration of voluntary submission to enforcement and the indication of an alternative premises. In the event of non-compliance with the contract or upon its termination, the landlord can carry out an eviction without taking the matter to court.

What does an occasional lease agreement consist of?

An occasional lease agreement consists of four elements:

  • the main occasional lease agreement;
  • the tenant's declaration of voluntary submission to enforcement;
  • the statement designating the premises where the tenant will be able to reside after enforcement execution;
  • the statement from the owners of the designated premises (or persons authorized to dispose of it) agreeing to the tenant residing there after vacating the rented apartment.

The address service from okazjonalny.info provides the last two elements: the designation of the alternative premises together with the owner's statement.

Visit to the notary

The only element that must take the form of a notarial deed is the tenant's declaration of voluntary submission to enforcement. The remaining statements can take simple written form, although regarding the statement of the alternative property owner, some people choose to obtain a notarized signature.
