Rental agreement – Terms and conditions
The terms and conditions of rental agreement
The rental agreement and its principles provide security for both you as a tenant and for us as the landlord.
Here you’ll find a brief overview of the main rules and agreements that help create a pleasant and transparent rental relationship.
-
Contract term
The agreement is signed digitally as a fixed‑term contract and is valid for one (1) year from the date the apartment is handed over.
The Agreement may be terminated at the end of the term by notifying the other party at least one (1) month before the end of the term.
-
Contract prolongation
The Parties may agree to extend the term of the Agreement by signing a relevant written agreement to this Agreement.
A Party is obliged to notify the other Party of its desire to extend the Agreement by sending a relevant written notice to e-mail no less than two (2) months before the expiration of the Agreement. -

Background check
Before signing the rental agreement, all clients undergo a background check.
This includes verifying regular income, checking for payment defaults, reviewing the criminal record, and other necessary activities described in the rental agreement.
If you have chosen a suitable apartment, you will need to submit the following documents along with your application for the background check:
- A copy or photo (taken with a phone) of a valid identity document (ID card, passport, residence permit)
- For agreements with a deposit: a 6‑month bank statement with a digital bank stamp (showing all income and expenses)
If you have recently moved to Latvia and have not yet received a residence permit, please send confirmation from your place of work and a copy of your passport.
Please send the documents to info@lumimajas.lv.
