Document background
The Informal Lease Agreement serves as a streamlined alternative to more complex rental contracts in Switzerland, particularly suitable for straightforward rental arrangements between private parties or small-scale commercial rentals. While maintaining compliance with Swiss rental laws and the Code of Obligations, this document type offers a more accessible format for both landlords and tenants. It includes all legally required elements such as party details, property description, rental terms, and maintenance obligations, but presents them in a more approachable manner. The agreement is particularly useful for short-term rentals, residential leases, or situations where parties prefer a simpler contractual arrangement while still ensuring legal validity under Swiss law.
