In real estate, a Landlord is the owner of real property that is leased to another party. The landlord grants the right of possession and use of the property to a tenant in exchange for rent.
The landlord is also known as the lessor under a lease agreement and is responsible for fulfilling the obligations outlined in the lease and required by law. These responsibilities often include maintaining the property in a habitable condition and honoring the tenant’s right to quiet enjoyment.
