A Wisconsin standard residential lease agreement is a legal document that outlines the terms of a rental arrangement between a landlord and tenant.

Wisconsin's right to rent law balances the rights of property owners to rent their homes and the rights of their neighbors to use and enjoy their property. The law was passed in response to a growing number of communities banning the rental of residential dwellings for any period of time less than 30 days.

A Wisconsin month-to-month rental agreement, or ?tenancy-at-will?, is a lease that continues until terminated by either the landlord or tenant. When terminating, at least twenty-eight (28) days' notice will be required. The sender is recommended to use certified mail with a return receipt from the USPS.

When a tenant with no written lease pays rent on a monthly basis, the tenant and the landlord must meet two requirements in terminating tenancy. First, the notice must be in writing. Second, you must give notice at least 28 days before the end of the rent-paying period.

Removal from premises The landlord may not confiscate your personal belongings, turn off your utilities, lock you out of your apartment, or use force to remove you. If the small claims court judge rules in the landlord's favor, the judge may issue a court order requiring you to leave the property.

If a rental agreement or any of the landlord's rules or regulations are in writing, the landlord should give the tenant a chance to read them before the tenant decides to rent. This gives the tenant a chance to find out what all the rental terms and conditions are before deciding whether to rent from that landlord.
