[RPPTL LandTen] corp lessee for residential unit

Hello all.

I've been asked by a residential landlord whether we need to amend his
residential lease agreement because he will be renting a single family home
to an LLC as the "lessee" but an actual employee will be living in the home.
The HOA has no restrictions on corporate leases.

I've not dealt with this scenario before.  Is there a particular addendum or
different type of lease that must be used in this situation?

Thank you for any insight you can provide.

Regards,

Either have the employee sign the lease individually (with the LLC to pay all monies), or better yet, have the employee acknowledge in writing that his/her tenancy is a sub-tenancy pursuant to the lease with the LLC and that he/she will abide by the lease terms

Have a ethics question.  I have a  client who has requested that I review a lease for my client and his partner.  He does not want me to be disqualified from representing him if he has problems with his partner in the future.  Can I prepare an engagement letter which states my representation of the two is only for the purpose of reviewing the lease and I represent my client in all other matters in the partnership?

Will that keep me from being disqualified from representing my client in the event of litigation between the two partners?  Does anyone have any suggestion on how to handle this so I am not disqualified?

Either have the employee sign the lease individually (with the LLC to pay all monies), or better yet, have the employee acknowledge in writing that his/her tenancy is a sub-tenancy pursuant to the lease with the LLC and that he/she will abide by the lease terms

Hello all.

I’ve been asked by a residential landlord whether we need to amend his residential lease agreement because he will be renting a single family home to an LLC as the “lessee” but an actual employee will be living in the home.    The HOA has no restrictions on corporate leases.

I’ve not dealt with this scenario before.  Is there a particular addendum or different type of lease that must be used in this situation?

Thank you for any insight you can provide.

That’s a tough one. I suggest you enter into a written engagement agreement with your client and his partner which states that you have represented your client in the past and intend to represent your client in the future, that you are representing the two of them only for the purpose of this one particular venture, that you have not gotten and you will receive any confidential or proprietary information of the non-client. Even with all of that, I still don’t think you will be able to represent your client in a direct action against the non-client arising out of the joint representation.
The only other way to do that is to represent your client in this transaction and let the non-client know you are representing the client throughout the transaction and have the non-client sign a letter stating you are not representing him/her (the non-client). This is awkward at best, but highlights the issue

I just had a similar situation (about ½ an hour ago, as a matter of fact) wherein a client had contracted with a builder to build a house (about 2 weeks ago)..and then the builder (last week) approached him to do a joint venture to build another spec house…..I begged off the JV deal altogether, wanting to only represent my client in the building of his own house in order to avoid the potential conflict down the road which would cause me to have to recuse myself from representing either party in case anything could be construed as doing work for the JV. The client wasn’t happy but even the potential of a conflict of interest had me beg off the additional work.

There is no easy answer to these question, and it doesn’t help that clients don’t understand the concept of a “conflict” and why we, as lawyers, can’t represent all sides of a deal. How many times have we heard the words: “What are you talking about? There’s no conflict; he’s my long-time partner/best friend/best man at my wedding/employee/priest/soul-mate [insert various descriptions you have heard]”

I just had a similar situation (about ½ an hour ago, as a matter of fact) wherein a client had contracted with a builder to build a house (about 2 weeks ago)..and then the builder (last week) approached him to do a joint venture to build another spec house…..I begged off the JV deal altogether, wanting to only represent my client in the building of his own house in order to avoid the potential conflict down the road which would cause me to have to recuse myself from representing either party in case anything could be construed as doing work for the JV. The client wasn’t happy but even the potential of a conflict of interest had me beg off the additional work.

That’s a tough one. I suggest you enter into a written engagement agreement with your client and his partner which states that you have represented your client in the past and intend to represent your client in the future, that you are representing the two of them only for the purpose of this one particular venture, that you have not gotten and you will receive any confidential or proprietary information of the non-client. Even with all of that, I still don’t think you will be able to represent your client in a direct action against the non-client arising out of the joint representation.
The only other way to do that is to represent your client in this transaction and let the non-client know you are representing the client throughout the transaction and have the non-client sign a letter stating you are not representing him/her (the non-client). This is awkward at best, but highlights the issue

Hello all.

I’ve been asked by a residential landlord whether we need to amend his residential lease agreement because he will be renting a single family home to an LLC as the “lessee” but an actual employee will be living in the home.    The HOA has no restrictions on corporate leases.

I’ve not dealt with this scenario before.  Is there a particular addendum or different type of lease that must be used in this situation?

Thank you for any insight you can provide.

Thank you Less and Manuel.  I see this situation to be problematic.  If the LLC is the “lessee” and even if the employee agrees to a subtenancy, what happens if the employment relationship ends mid-term and the ex-employee refuses to leave?  Who does the eviction and on what grounds?  Does the lessee do the eviction?  Perhaps the lease needs to contain a provision addressing this situation where if the employment relationship ends so does the subtenancy, and a failure to vacate within ___ days constitutes a non-monetary default.  Will such a provision run contrary to the FRLTA?  Does FRLTA apply when the “lessee” is a business entity?  I’m all for drafting a unique lease but for the landlord who owns this single family home within an HOA this might be a headache not worth creating or it might go smoothly.

Agreed it is problematic. Your best bet is to get the tenant onto the lease recognizing his/her rights are derivative of the employer’s tenancy. The employer is looking for trouble if it doesn’t get the tenant to sign a lease, because getting the tenant out if the employee is fired is highly problematic. What I have done in that situation is have the employee sign a lease saying it was terminable at will by either party, much like a month to month lease.

Thank you Less and Manuel.  I see this situation to be problematic.  If the LLC is the “lessee” and even if the employee agrees to a subtenancy, what happens if the employment relationship ends mid-term and the ex-employee refuses to leave?  Who does the eviction and on what grounds?  Does the lessee do the eviction?  Perhaps the lease needs to contain a provision addressing this situation where if the employment relationship ends so does the subtenancy, and a failure to vacate within ___ days constitutes a non-monetary default.  Will such a provision run contrary to the FRLTA?  Does FRLTA apply when the “lessee” is a business entity?  I’m all for drafting a unique lease but for the landlord who owns this single family home within an HOA this might be a headache not worth creating or it might go smoothly.

Either have the employee sign the lease individually (with the LLC to pay all monies), or better yet, have the employee acknowledge in writing that his/her tenancy is a sub-tenancy pursuant to the lease with the LLC and that he/she will abide by the lease terms

Hello all.

I’ve been asked by a residential landlord whether we need to amend his residential lease agreement because he will be renting a single family home to an LLC as the “lessee” but an actual employee will be living in the home.    The HOA has no restrictions on corporate leases.

I’ve not dealt with this scenario before.  Is there a particular addendum or different type of lease that must be used in this situation?

Thank you for any insight you can provide.

Regards,
