Today I would like to give a brief explanation of the Conflict Prevention Ordinance.

What is the Ordinance for the Prevention of Rental Housing Disputes?

To be precise, this ordinance is called the "Rental Housing Dispute Prevention Ordinance," commonly known as the "Tokyo Rule," and strictly speaking, as the nickname suggests, it is a "local rule of Tokyo."

However, issues regarding restoring properties to their original state when tenants move out are common across the country, and I believe there are many areas where this law is used.

As the name suggests, this rule was introduced by Tokyo in 2004, ahead of the rest of the country.

Generally, these laws are established to prevent problems with repairs during tenancy and restoring the property to its original condition when tenants move out.

Before the ordinance came into effect, there were many problems surrounding moving out, such as not getting a single yen of the security deposit refunded or being charged an exorbitant amount that exceeded the security deposit.

In order to prevent such cases, the basic idea is to clarify responsibility between the landlord and tenant before concluding the rental agreement.

Key points of the ordinance to prevent rental housing disputes

The key points of the ordinance are

・"Deterioration due to aging" and "normal wear and tear" are the responsibility of the lessor.

・Damage caused by the tenant's willful misconduct is the responsibility of the tenant.

・Special provisions can be established in accordance with the above principles (agreement between landlord and tenant is required)

・Repairs for equipment malfunctions during tenancy are the responsibility of the landlord (in the case of intentional or negligent acts on the part of the tenant, the tenant is responsible)

These are the core elements.

The ordinance to prevent rental housing disputes is for consumer protection.

Looking at it now, these regulations seem to be relatively commonplace, but in the past the definition of "restoring the property to its original condition" itself was vague, and there were many cases where the tenant was required to pay even for "deterioration due to aging" and "normal wear and tear."

In addition, while it is now possible to establish special clauses, the ordinance itself is overwhelmingly based on the protection of tenants and consumers, with special clauses that are excessively profitable or disadvantageous to the tenant being invalid.

I think many owners understand this, but when it comes to settling the accounts for tenant departure, unless clear negligence on the part of the tenant is found, the owner is increasingly likely to incur increased repair costs.

Of course, the scope is limited to "residential properties located within Tokyo," but since many areas are based on this ordinance, many people are probably experiencing increased costs when they move out, unless there is extreme negligence on the part of the tenant.

More detailed information is available on the websites of each local government, so owners who have never really looked into it in depth should probably take a look.

summary

As an owner, it is nice to have tenants live in the property for a long time, but naturally the cost of construction work when they move out is high.
In addition, the longer the residence, the greater the landlord's share of the burden, which will deal a major blow to cash flow in the short term.

When managing income-generating properties, cost control is inevitable and extremely important.
We take into consideration a wide range of factors, such as the length of residence and the behavior of residents, and create a budget accordingly.
It seems that we will need to keep this perspective in mind in the future.
