Michigan rental property owners, landlords and property managers need to use rental agreements and legal notices to follow the Michigan landlord tenant laws. A free, state-specific Michigan lease is included in your ARPOLA membership along with the Michigan legal notices and forms you will use most often. Should you decide to use a different lease, listed below are terms and conditions you should include to help you meet the minimum requirements.

No statutory limit
