Document background
The Addendum To Rental Agreement serves as a crucial legal instrument in Austrian property law for modifying existing rental arrangements without the need to draft an entirely new agreement. This document is typically used when parties need to update specific terms of their rental agreement, such as rent amount, lease duration, occupancy details, or property use conditions. It must comply with Austrian tenancy law (Mietrechtsgesetz) and the General Civil Code (ABGB), ensuring all modifications are legally enforceable. The addendum becomes particularly relevant during lease renewals, when accommodating changing circumstances, or when both parties agree to alter specific terms of their original arrangement. It's essential for both residential and commercial properties, requiring careful consideration of mandatory provisions under Austrian law.
