Do you live in a rental with no written lease?
No worries. A renter with a verbal or oral rental agreement has the same rights and responsibilities as a tenant with a written rental agreement. Your landlord must provide you with the same services that landlords provide to renters with written rental agreements.
You can learn more about oral rental agreements in our article What is an Oral Rental Agreement? (FAQ) at montanalawhelp.org/resource/what-oral-rental-agreement-faq
