Rent
Rental laws in Pakistan regulate the relationship between landlords and tenants and outline the rights and responsibilities of each party. These laws vary depending on the province in which the property is located, but some general principles apply throughout the country.
Under Pakistani rental laws, landlords are responsible for maintaining the property in a habitable and livable condition and making necessary repairs promptly. Tenants, on the other hand, are responsible for paying rent on time and responsibly using the property.
In most cases, landlords have the right to increase rent on an annual basis, but the amount of the increase must be reasonable and agreed upon by both parties. Tenants also have the right to challenge any rent increase that they feel is unreasonable.
Overall, Pakistani rental laws are designed to protect the rights of both landlords and tenants and ensure that rental arrangements are fair and equitable.
In the event of a dispute between a landlord and tenant, the matter can be resolved through mediation or arbitration, or in some cases, through the courts.
