A new phenomenon of rentals is catching on in the extended suburbs of Vasai-Virar. Instead of a monthly rental and a deposit, the tenant has to pay a heavy deposit to the owner. On the expiry of the rent tenure, the tenant gets the deposit back, if the house is returned to the owner in its original condition.
The deposits are to the tune of Rs. 2 to Rs. 5 lakh. A proper leave-and-license agreement is drawn up and both the owner and the tenant do not need to contact each other until the agreement ends.
This zero rental concept has many takers as both the owner and the tenant stand to gain. On one hand, the owner is assured that he will get the house back in good condition, thus saving on the repair cost.
On the other hand, the tenant also gets the entire amount back on the expiry of the agreement and based on the condition of the house. The tenant is freed from constant worries of paying rentals. Know more about home loans on www.apnaloan.com.
