This Rolling Tenancy Agreement template is designed for use in Malta when establishing an ongoing residential tenancy relationship. It incorporates all requirements under the Private Residential Leases Act 2020 and related Maltese legislation, making it suitable for both private landlords and property management companies letting residential properties in Malta. The agreement includes provisions for the initial fixed term, followed by an indefinite period where the tenancy continues on the same terms until either party gives notice. It covers essential elements such as rent payments, maintenance obligations, utility responsibilities, and access rights, while ensuring compliance with mandatory registration requirements with the Housing Authority.
