COMPANY POLICIES REGARDING RENTALS AT KNUTSON & ASSOCIATES 

I, Renter, agree to the following company policies before renting with Knutson & Associates 

• I understand that the property I’m renting is in AS IS condition. Anything cosmetic that Knutson & Associates or owner of unit deems to be as such is not required to be repaired.

• I will treat all Knutson & Associates staff with respect. I will not be argumentative, rude, disrespectful, threatening, or pestering at any time.  I will not make any demands in disrespectful manner. Tenant will under no circumstances yell, use profanity, or intimidate any of Knutson’s Staff. If tenant violates this, this is immediate grounds for eviction & lease will be terminated. Tenant also understands Property Management reserves the right to refrain from all future phone correspondence should tenant violate this, and all future correspondence will be in writing by email, only. 

• I will not be deceptive in hiding any animals I would have during my tenancy if I have a ESA or Service Animal & will DISCLOSE this immediately in writing BEFORE I am offered a rental with K&A . If it’s a NO PETS policy property, I will adhere accordingly. 

• I understand that I will need to pay my rent directly at Bank of Hawaii using the account number provided in my lease and will send proof of payment. I understand rent is due on the 1st, and there is a maximum grace period of 3 days and rent MUST be received INTO the account by the 4th to avoid a late fee. If received on the 5th or later a late fee will be applied: NO EXCEPTIONS REGARDLESS IF IT’S A HOLIDAY. IF rent is paid online by bill.com, which is a privilege, not a right, I will ensure rent is paid into Knutson’s Account NO LATER THAN BY THE 4TH. If rent is paid later than the 4th on any occasion, I will lose the right to pay online and must pay rent at the bank. 

• I understand purchasing an HO4 policy for renters insurance is required and will additionally insure Knutson & Associates.

• I will pay ALL UTILITY bills promptly when asked, and pay utility providers TIMELY. 

• I understand & agree that anytime the lease needs to be changed at TENANTS REQUEST in regards to Occupant changes, (Adding or removing a tenant), or any another elective change, there will be a $200 fee per change that will need to be paid to K&A prior to making such change with new lease revisions.  I understand the change MUST be approved by the Owner & K&A. Any changes that are considered elective are not an automatic right, but a request; and any such request of the sort may be denied. The Security Deposit Remains with the property and will not be released until all occupants on original lease have vacated. Should there be any change of tenants, where a new tenant moves in and/or any tenant moving out,  any new tenants added onto lease 100% accept the original Property Condition Report & all new/original tenants are all jointly liable for anything and everything in relation to the property.

• I will agree to read the lease thoroughly, and ensure I abide by all terms and conditions listed within. I understand I’m fully responsible for reading the lease thoroughly, and any action items asked of me will be adhered to. 

• If there are multiple tenants on the lease, the Security Deposit will be refunded to 1 tenant on the lease and it’s up to the tenants who are all jointly responsible to separate any payments on their own accord after. 

• I agree that I have verbally confirmed that I am agreeable to all of these points with the Managing Broker/Property Management Representative. 

If renter violates these company policies, I understand this will risk my ability to get a good reference for re-renting or any lease renewal. 

I acknowledge that my behavior will be reported to the home owner.
