Tenancy Agreement Template for Nigeria

This Tenancy Agreement template is built for the Nigerian rental market, following the structure used by property lawyers in Lagos and across Nigeria. It sets out a fixed-term residential tenancy between a landlord (or landlady) and a tenant, with rent paid per annum and a refundable caution fee — the arrangement most Nigerian landlords and agents use. Simply fill in the parties, property details, rent and dates, and generate a clean, print-ready agreement. Every clause that varies from one let to the next is editable, while the standard legal covenants are kept intact so your document stays enforceable.

What's included:

• Parties block with landlord/landlady designation and gender-aware wording

• Property description, term (commencement and expiration dates), and per-annum rent

• Refundable caution fee with refund conditions

• 19 tenant covenants and 4 landlord covenants

• Mutual provisions: statutory notice, rent review, renewal, re-entry and dispute resolution

• Preparer/solicitor block and a full signing section with witness details for both parties

Best for: Nigerian landlords, landladies, property managers, estate agents and solicitors preparing residential lettings.
