Possession of the Property

This element of a real estate lease addresses the rights of possession of the tenant. The landlord promises the tenant the possession of the property for their enjoyment and promises that the landlord will not interfere with that possession.

This does not mean that the landlord cannot enter the property, as it is usually part of the lease agreement that the landlord have the right to enter the property for repairs or other activities outlined in the lease.
