What your tenancy agreement covers
Agreements are assembled from a Ghanaian clause library and filled in from the tenancy record.
Assembled from a clause library
Every organisation starts with a default set of clauses written for Ghanaian tenancies. Each clause has a category and a position, and the agreement is composed in that order.
It is a library rather than a fixed template, so a clause can be edited or added once and used on every agreement that follows.
What the default set covers
- Parties and property
- Term of the tenancy
- Rent and how it is paid
- The security deposit and how it is returned
- Utilities and bills
- Maintenance and repairs
- Use of the premises
- Subletting and assignment
- Notice and termination
- Governing law — the laws of the Republic of Ghana
Your details are filled in
Placeholders in the clause text are replaced with the actual landlord and tenant names, the property, the start date, the payment frequency, the rent and the deposit, in cedis.
AI-assisted drafting
Some drafting is AI-assisted, and there is an AI review that flags clauses which look unusual, one-sided or ambiguous.
Both are drafting aids, not counsel. Have an unusual or high-value tenancy reviewed by a Ghanaian-qualified lawyer before it is signed. Nothing generated here is legal advice.
An agreement can be refreshed from the clause library only while it is unsigned. Once anyone has signed, the text is left alone.
