TENANCY AGREEMENT TEMPLATE FOR LEASE OF PRIVATE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES 1. The Digitalised Property Transactions Workgroup* (DPTWG), established to implement an initiative under the Real Estate Industry Transformation Map, aims to move the real estate industry towards offering seamless, efficient, and secure property transactions from end-to-end. 2. As part of its efforts to streamline property transaction processes and move towards digitisation, the DPTWG has developed the following recommended tenancy agreement template for leases of private residential properties. 3. The following tenancy agreement template is divided into three main sections: a. The Schedule – which contains clauses relating to the main aspects of a tenancy for parties to negotiate. Where necessary, additional clauses can be incorporated into the tenancy agreement through relevant clause in the Schedule; b. The Operative Part – which contains generally applicable clauses that govern, amongst others, the day-to-day rights and obligations of parties; and c. Annexures – Annexure A is a helpful guide for items to look out for at the end of the tenancy. Annexures B and C are suggested templates of reports to be prepared pursuant to the relevant clauses in the Operative Part. 4. Please note that use of this tenancy agreement template is not mandated. Parties are free to negotiate the terms and conditions that will govern their contractual relationship when entering into a tenancy agreement. Please ensure that you fully understand the nature and implications of the contractual terms you will be agreeing to before signing the tenancy agreement.
