Päävuokralaiselle

Päävuokralaiselle is a Finnish term that translates to "to the main tenant" or "for the main tenant." It refers to a specific individual within a rental agreement who holds the primary responsibility for the lease and the property. This person is the one who directly contracts with the landlord.

In a typical rental situation, there is usually one named päävuokralainen on the lease agreement. This individual is legally bound to pay rent, adhere to the terms of the lease, and ensure the property is maintained. While other individuals may live in the property, such as subtenants or family members, the päävuokralainen remains the primary point of contact and responsible party for the landlord.

The responsibilities of a päävuokralainen can include managing utility payments, reporting maintenance issues to the landlord, and ensuring that any subtenants abide by the rental agreement. They are also typically the one who would handle disputes or communication with the landlord on behalf of all occupants. The concept is important for clarifying accountability in rental arrangements.
