Here are a few differences between commercial and residential tenancy laws:

  • Divergent from what some landlords may say, there is no single “standard” commercial lease.
  • There is no implied right of habitability.
  • There is no statutory right to “repair and deduct” for property defects.
  • The security for residential foreclosures does not apply.
  • The 10% 60-day rent raise rule does not apply.
  • The 60-day notice to quit rule (required for month to month tenancies over one year) does not apply.
  • Statutory penalties for disconnecting utility services or changing locks do not apply.
  • There is no limit to the amount of security deposit charged.
  • The privacy security of entry by landlord laws does not apply.
  • Landlords can accept a partial rent payment during an eviction and still successfully continue with that eviction if they use the apposite notice.

Discrepancies can arise over many issues and at any time during the life of the lease. While every potential circumstance presents different situations, the following are some of the most common disputes between landlords and their tenants:

  • Missed or late rent payments
  • Overcharging rent
  • Exorbitant late fees
  • Breach of lease
  • Fixture or appliance damage repair
  • Common Area Maintenance (CAM)
  • Wrongful eviction
  • Damage to property
  • Failure to disclose fees
