Does the landlord need to advise the tenant that the lease agreement is coming to an end?
Landlords are obliged to notify their tenant of the upcoming expiration of the lease agreement. This obligation will arise not more than 80 but not less than 40 business days before the expiry date of the fixed term agreement.
A landlord must notify the tenant of the following in writing:
- the impending expiry date;
- any material change that would apply if the agreement is renewed or otherwise continued beyond the expiry date;
- that the agreement will be automatically continued on a month to month basis unless the consumer expressly directs the supplier to terminate the agreement on the expiry date or agrees to a renewal of the agreement for a further fixed term.
Can you enter into a 4 year lease agreement?
Regulation 5 of the Act states that the maximum period of a lease agreement is 24 months from the date of signature by the tenant unless the tenant expressly agrees to a longer period and the landlord can show a demonstrable financial benefit to the consumer for concluding an agreement in excess of the 24 month threshold.

I need urgent assistant as I got a court order to be in court on the 19th of April 2016, because of a friend who did not pay her rent, and I need advice on the following questions:
Good Day, I have an upcoming court order I just want to know a few things on the following points?
1. When the contract was signed, the Agent told me that I must sign as a witness, which I did, when we were in the meditation meeting, they told me that I was a co signer and has just as much right as the person who has rented the property?
2. As she miss paid with communication with them to why she was not able, I asked them to send me all the documents and until today they have not sent me any copies of documents? As I did not get a copy of the contract nor the communication between them? I only got the email of the mediation meeting and now the court order.
3. They have immeadiitly switched off her water and lights when she did not pay on time, which I saw was agains the law according to what I saw on the meditation office reception wall?
4. Now how do I go to work as I only helped her to get the flat and I was still living in my garden flat?
Yours Sincerely
Yolandy

Organizations can compel their customers and employees to resolve disputes in arbitration proceedings bound not by state or federal law, but by religious edict.
