What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
Hi,
My current lease was presented to me when my landlord was doing a repair to the front door. I read it and noted to him paragraphs that did not apply to me (he had just rented out a different apartment and this lease contained paragraphs for the security deposit, my was to renew and would not need a security deposit as it was paid when I first moved in) he told me to cross it out, initial it, and he would initial it when he signed it.
I gave him the copy and he said he would mail me my signed copy. I got my copy but it is not initialed or signed by the landlord. The paragraph before the signatures, state: IN WITNESS WHEREOF: then lists our names.
Is the lease valid since he did not sign it?
Thanks
