沒有租約怎麼辦

有租約是最正統的做法, 若日後相方有爭執, 法庭會根據合約的條款作部份判決的理據, 若你沒有已打stamp duty的租約在手, 確實是比較蝕底.

如果日後有爭執, 是沒辦法證明業主同意租借該單位給你的時間. 但你可根據這段時間內, 以你為收信人的信件作為證明 (越耐越好), 你確實是在這單位住了一段長的時間. 再者, 相關的租單/ 收數紙最好keep齊, 可茲證明你們之間是業主與租客的關係.

當日後有爭執的時候, 未必可以改變業主收回單位的權單, 但有機會爭取一點點的補償.

最好, 還是補回正式合約.

1. You get no protection at all.

Under existing law, all real estate transaction must be in writing. In other word, you have a lease that does not recognize by the law.

2. It is difficult to say. But in a perspective of the landlord and tenants, evading tax (stamp duty, property tax) only creates more troubles that far exceed from the money saved.

1. Difficult to say. It depends on the owner's income.

2. No. You simply don't get protection from the law.
