Repairs & Improvements Clause Samples

The 'Repairs & Improvements' clause defines the responsibilities of the parties regarding the maintenance, repair, and enhancement of the property during the term of an agreement. Typically, it specifies which party is responsible for routine repairs, who must address major structural issues, and whether improvements or alterations require prior approval. For example, a tenant may be required to keep the premises in good condition and obtain the landlord's consent before making significant changes. This clause ensures clarity in the allocation of maintenance duties and helps prevent disputes over property condition and unauthorized modifications.
