Arrendador: The landlord’s side of the agreement
Understand arrendador, what to check and the practical steps to take.
What does it mean?
Arrendador means landlord: the party letting the property to the tenant.
The person showing the property may be an agent. Clarify who is actually named in the agreement and authorised to act.
An everyday example
Keep both the landlord’s details and any agent’s role clear in your records.
What to do next
- Check the landlord’s identity and the property details on the draft contract.
- If dealing with an agent, ask whom they represent.
- Agree how repairs and formal communications should be reported.
- Verify payment instructions independently before transferring money.
A useful question to ask
Who is the landlord, and who is authorised to deal with me on their behalf?
