Lease vs. Rent: Know the Difference

Shumaila Saeed
By Shumaila Saeed || Updated on December 25, 2023
A lease is a contractual agreement where a property is provided for use or occupation over a specific period in return for a set rent. Rent refers to the periodic payment a tenant makes to a landlord for using and occupying this property.
Lease vs. Rent

Key Differences

Lease typically refers to a contractual arrangement where property is rented for a long-term period, often spanning several months to years. Rent, however, is generally understood as the payment made for the temporary use of a property, typically on a monthly basis.

In leasing, the terms and conditions are more rigid and defined for a longer duration, and breaking a lease can often involve penalties. Renting offers more flexibility, with agreements often renewable on a monthly or annual basis, allowing for easier termination.

Leases often include specific clauses regarding maintenance, modifications, and usage of the property. Rent agreements, while also outlining use and maintenance, are usually less detailed and offer more flexibility in these areas.

When leasing, tenants may have the option to buy the property at the end of the lease term. In contrast, renting does not typically offer this option, with the arrangement purely for the use of the space.

Lease agreements usually require a security deposit, which is typically higher than that for renting, reflecting the longer commitment and potential for more significant wear and tear on the property.
