    What are the Tenant�s core obligations regarding property upkeep?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    A Tenant is legally required to maintain the property in the same good condition that a reasonable person would maintain their own property. This involves paying the Rent on due dates and performing any restoration or maintenance tasks that were specifically agreed upon or are customary for Tenants. If a Tenant wants to make changes, they must first obtain licences from competent official entities and written permission from the Landlord. These obligations ensure that the property remains a viable asset and is not devalued during the lease term.
