Covenants are legally binding promises or agreements made between parties, typically found in contracts, leases, or deeds. These agreements outline specific obligations, rights, or restrictions that each party must adhere to. Covenants can cover various aspects, including property use, maintenance, financial obligations, and behaviour. Breaching a covenant may lead to legal consequences, such as financial penalties or enforcement actions. Covenants are essential for defining the rights and responsibilities of parties in legal agreements and ensuring compliance with agreed-upon terms.
