TurboTenant’s Oklahoma lease agreement has been written and reviewed by Oklahoma legal professionals. It’s been drafted to keep you compliant and covered as you rent out your property.

The Oklahoma lease agreement is split up into three sections.

While you may not edit all of the specifics directly, remember you can add additional provisions that supersede any existing language in the lease by using the Additional Provisions section. This gives you customization and flexibility should you have unique things you want to ensure are covered in your lease.

Section 1 contains the custom details relevant to you, your tenants, and your rental property— who is on the lease, rent amount, utilities, etc. You’ll add these details during the lease creation process

We’ve set up the lease agreement in a way that is easy for you and your tenants to understand. You’ll see the main details you’ve added to the summary table at the front of the lease agreement. The remaining items—like smoking, utilities, keys, etc.—are outlined in the rest of Section 1 as you can see in this example Oklahoma Lease Agreement.

Here are a couple of other items in Section 1 worth mentioning:

Additional Provisions: this is where you can add any property specific rules, necessary local clauses, or other specifics you want to include. We recommend that you review any additional provisions with a lawyer.

Lost Key: if your tenants do not return all keys to you when they move out then they are required to pay for the full cost of rekeying the property.

Section 2 includes language that is specific to Oklahoma. In order to help make sure you stay compliant with local laws, we’ve not allowed you to edit the details here.

There are some clauses in Section 2 that we wanted to call out so you understand how it affects you and your tenants.

Rent is due in full on the Due Date. If Rent is not received on or before the fifth (5th) day of each month, a late fee of five percent (5%) of the unpaid Rent amount will be charged. All late fees shall be deemed additional rent for the month, and shall be paid and collected as such. Late fees will be assessed from the Due Date until the entire balance of unpaid Rent, accrued late fees, and any other charges are paid in full.

Security deposits requirements may vary quite a bit from state to state. In Oklahoma:

Security deposit returns in Oklahoma also have some unique rules:

Landlord shall have the right at all reasonable times during the Term of this Agreement to enter the Premises for the purpose of inspecting and exhibiting the Premises and all buildings and improvements thereon. In non-emergency situations, Landlord will make a good faith effort to notify Tenant at least one (1) day’s notice prior to entry by one of the following methods: telephone message, email message, or door hanger, and having made such good faith effort shall enter as necessary. In an emergency situation, or if a repair is requested by Tenant, Landlord is permitted to enter immediately without prior notice. Tenant understands that Landlord will typically commence showing the Premises to prospective tenants one hundred twenty (120) days or more before the expiration of the term of this Agreement, but may show the Premises to prospective tenants, purchasers, or lenders at any time. Landlord shall further have the right to display “for sale", "for rent", or "vacancy" signs in or about the Premises.

Smoke and carbon monoxide (if applicable) detectors (hereinafter referred to collectively as “Detectors”) have been installed at the Premises. Upon commencement of this Agreement, Landlord and Tenant have verified that the Detectors in the Premises are in good working order. Tenant agrees to keep the Detectors operational at all times and take no measures to render them non-operational or to diminish their effectiveness. Tenant agrees to perform the regular testing on Detectors and to report the failure of any such test, or any other apparent malfunction of the detectors to Landlord immediately upon discovery in writing. Tenant acknowledges that the Detectors may be battery operated and agrees to replace the batteries, at Tenant’s expense, promptly, as needed, for the duration of their stay at the Premises. If Tenant tampers with, removes, destroys, disconnects or removes power from any installed smoke detector, except in the course of inspection, maintenance or replacement of the detector, upon conviction, is guilty of a misdemeanor and may be fined not less than Fifty Dollars ($50.00) nor more than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00).

Landlord is aware that this property ❑ has been flooded within the past five (5) years ❑ has not been flooded in the past five (5) years.

The clauses in Section 3 are standard to most lease agreements. Along with the rest of the lease agreement, we worked with experienced landlords to make sure you are following best practices in your lease agreement.

Your tenant is not at all allowed to sublease the rental property without your written permission.

Your tenant cannot make any alterations or improvements—like repainting—without your written consent. Unless agreed upon, when they move out, the property must be in the same condition that it was in when they moved in.

The rental agreement will be governed and construed in accordance to Oklahoma's own laws. Also there is a requirement to consent to the use of the county courts in which the property is located.

Your tenant cannot break any law or ordinance (federal, state, or local) while on your rental property. This also includes a clause saying they are not allowed to be annoying or a nuisance to neighbors while on the property. Any of the above can be good grounds for terminating the lease agreement.

We wanted our lease agreement to handle the majority of use cases for landlords in Oklahoma. However, we do know that some rental situations are unique. If there are other specifics you want to outline in the lease agreement, you can do so in the Additional Provisions section while creating your lease agreement in TurboTenant. We recommend that you review them with a lawyer to ensure you stay compliant with the law.
