Cone And Key FAQ'S

A Cone And Key agreement is a legal contract between two parties, typically a landlord and a tenant, where the tenant agrees to rent a property for a specified period of time in exchange for payment of rent.

A Cone And Key agreement should include the names of the parties involved, the property address, the duration of the lease, the amount of rent to be paid, the payment schedule, any security deposit requirements, and any other specific terms and conditions agreed upon by both parties.

In most cases, a landlord cannot increase the rent during the term of a Cone And Key agreement unless there is a specific provision in the agreement allowing for rent increases or if both parties agree to a rent increase.

Generally, a tenant cannot terminate a Cone And Key agreement before the agreed-upon term without facing penalties or consequences, unless there is a provision in the agreement allowing for early termination or if both parties mutually agree to terminate the agreement.

If a tenant fails to pay rent as agreed upon in a Cone And Key agreement, the landlord may have the right to take legal action, such as issuing a notice to pay rent or quit, and ultimately evicting the tenant if the rent remains unpaid.

In general, a landlord cannot enter the rental property without the tenant’s permission, except in certain emergency situations or if the lease agreement specifically allows for landlord access under certain circumstances.

A tenant generally cannot make significant modifications to the rental property without the landlord’s permission. However, minor modifications or alterations that do not damage the property may be allowed, depending on the terms of the Cone And Key agreement.

A landlord may withhold a portion or the entire security deposit at the end of the lease if there are damages beyond normal wear and tear or if the tenant has unpaid rent or other outstanding obligations as specified in the Cone And Key agreement.

If a tenant believes their rights under a Cone And Key agreement have been violated, they should consult with an attorney or seek legal advice to understand their options and potential remedies, such as filing a complaint with the appropriate housing authority or pursuing a legal action against the landlord.
