These rights, called tenants rights, prevent tenants from being abused or mishandled by landlords during the lease. The most common of the many rights of tenants are the right to privacy, right to live in a safe environment, and right to be notified of eviction. Along with the rights of privacy, tenants are also afforded peace and quiet when taking part in a lease. According to eviction rights, the tenant must be given a notice as well as fair court proceedings to be evicted from their home. Other such rights of tenants include being informed of changes in lease, being given reasonable repairs, and recieving a fair security deposit in line with the law.
