Start with this template

California has some of the most detailed landlord-tenant laws in the country — required disclosures, rent control applicability, habitability standards, and specific lease term requirements that vary by city and property type. A lease agreement form built for California captures the required elements while allowing customization for your specific property and jurisdiction.

This template covers the property address, landlord and tenant names and contact details, lease start and end date, monthly rent amount and due date, security deposit amount and conditions, late fee terms, pet policy, maintenance responsibilities, entry notice requirements, required California disclosures (lead paint, mold, Megan's Law, sex offender registry, bed bug policy), and signature fields for all parties.

California landlords, property managers, and real estate attorneys use structured lease forms to document tenancies consistently and compliantly. Store signed leases digitally alongside inspection reports and payment records. Review and update the template whenever California landlord-tenant law changes. Consult a California real estate attorney to confirm the current required disclosures for your specific jurisdiction.
