This Rental Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into between RW Oxford, LLC, hereinafter referred to as “OWNER” or “OPERATOR” and ________________________“OCCUPANT.”  In consideration of all the terms and conditions herein, OWNER does hereby lease to OCCUPANT the above-described storage space (hereinafter “STORAGE SPACE” or “PREMISES” or “SPACE”).  OWNER agrees to lease the above-referenced SPACE to OCCUPANT for a term of 1 (one) month beginning _________________________.  Should OCCUPANT hold over and retain possession of said SPACE after the expiration of this Agreement, its occupancy of said SPACE shall be as an OCCUPANT from month to month with OWNER’s consent, at the prevailing rental rate.  All terms and conditions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect so long as OCCUPANT retains possession of said SPACE.

 

 

1. TERM.  The term of the tenancy shall commence on the date indicated above and shall continue until terminated on a month-to-month basis.  The minimum rental term is one month.  All terms and conditions of this Agreement shall continue so long as Occupant retains possession of the Storage Space.

 

2. RENT.  Monthly Rent in the amount stated above and Additional Rent defined as including but not exclusively, Default Charges, clean up charges, dumpster charges, damages to the Storage Space or Facility, and other unpaid fees or charges, shall be payable monthly to Operator in advance, without demand or notice, on or before the same day of the month as the day indicated in the Rental Agreement Date (hereinafter referred to as the “Due Date”) in the amount of the Monthly Rent stated above, and a like amount each month hereafter, until the termination of this Agreement.  In the event that the Due Date falls on the 31st day of the month, then the Due Date shall instead be the last day of the month.  In the event the Due Date falls on the 30th day of the month, then the Due Date shall remain on the 30th day of the month, except that the Due Date in the month of February shall be the last day of February.  All extensions and renewals are collectively the “Term”.  Occupant agrees to pay Rent:  in person at the Facility by way of drop box; by mail (payment shall be deemed made on the date of receipt); by electronic means including via SMS or Operator’s secure website at www.kingdomselfstore.com; or by advance written authorization to Operator.  (Occupant shall NOT deliver Rent in the form of cash to the Facility Office or by Mail).  It is expressly agreed that Operator does not send monthly statements or reminders of Rent due dates.  Occupant may request monthly statements.  The Invoice Fee stated above shall be payable for each statement.  Occupant shall not fail to pay Rent if Occupant does not receive an invoice or bill.  Operator, at Operator’s sole discretion, may accept or reject partial Rent payments.  Acceptance of partial payments of Rent by Operator shall not constitute a waiver of Operator’s rights and Occupant understands and agrees that acceptance of a partial Rent payment made to cure a default for nonpayment of Rent shall not delay or stop foreclosure on Occupant’s stored property.  The tender of partial payments shall not serve to waive or avoid the legal effect of prior notices given to OCCUPANT.  Only full payment on the OCCUPANT’s account prior to the published auction date will stop a scheduled sale of the property. ALL PAYMENTS MADE TO SATISFY OUTSTANDING LIEN AMOUNTS AND CHARGES ONCE OCCUPANT IS FORTY-FIVE (45) DAYS LATE SHALL BE PAID BY CERTIFIED CHECK, CASHIER’S CHECK, MONEY ORDER, OR CASH.  Operator shall require payments of Rent to be in the form of cash or cashier’s check in the event Occupant is in Default or has a payment due to Operator returned for any reason, including insufficient funds, or credit/debit card chargebacks.  No payments can be made within three (3) days of lien sale unless said payment is made in hand to Operator by cash, cashier’s check, certified check or money order, and accepted in person by Operator.  PAID RENT & INSURANCE IS NONREFUNDABLE.

 

3. CREDIT CARD/DEBIT CARD AUTHORIZATION FOR PAYMENT OF RENT AND OTHER CHARGES.  By providing a credit or debit card at any time during the Term, Occupant has authorized Operator to automatically charge or debit Occupant’s credit/debit card by the first day of the month, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, in the amount stated above as Rent for each month Occupant continues to occupy the Storage Space.  This authorization shall continue and include any increases in Rent and other charges assessed to the Occupant.  In the event Occupant terminates this authorization or this Agreement owing any Rent, or other charges due, Operator may charge/debit Occupant’s credit card for any sum due and owing upon termination including, but not exclusively, damages to the Storage Space or Facility, any Default charges, clean up charges, and disposal charges.  The authorization to charge/debit Rent or other charges shall survive if any sums are due and owing at the time of termination of the charge/debit authorization or the termination of this Agreement.  Payment by credit card to cure a Rent delinquency in excess of thirty (30) days can only occur if Occupant presents a credit card in Occupant’s own name, in person, at Operator’s office or, if owned by someone other than Occupant, then the card owner must be present at Operator’s office.  No credit card payments will be accepted under any circumstance once Occupant is forty-five (45) days late.  It is Occupant’s responsibility to notify Operator of any new or updated account information if the credit card information changes (including updating an expiration date on a credit card).  Occupant shall be charged late fees and other Default charges if the credit card payment is not approved by Occupant’s bank/credit card provider.

 

5. DENIAL OF ACCESS TO SPACE.  If rent is not paid within five (5) days of the monthly due date, OWNER may, without notice, deny the OCCUPANT access to the property located in the self-storage facility. Access will be denied to any party other than the OCCUPANT who does not retain gate code and key to lock on SPACE or has not supplied OWNER with written authorization from the OCCUPANT to enter the SPACE. Otherwise, only a court order will be sufficient to permit access by others. OCCUPANT’s access to the facility may also be conditioned in any manner deemed reasonably necessary by OWNER to maintain order on the PREMISES. Such measures may include, but are not limited to, restricting hours of operation, requiring verification of OCCUPANT’s identity and inspecting vehicles that enter the PREMISES. Additionally, if OCCUPANT is renting more than one SPACE at any given time, default on one rented SPACE shall constitute default on all rented SPACES, entitling OWNER to deny access to OCCUPANT to all rented SPACES.

 

6. FEES. Concurrently with the execution of this Rental Agreement, OCCUPANT shall pay to OWNER a New Account Administration Fee in the amount as set forth on the Info Sheet. OCCUPANT shall be subject to these additional fees: 

a.  Late Fee:  A Late Fee in accordance with the Florida Self-Storage Facility Act will be assessed after five (5) or more days after the Rent Due Date as follows: 20% of Monthly Rent.  A Late Fee may be assessed with each Rent period that remains unpaid. 

b.  Invoice Fee:  A bill for the monthly rent will not be sent to you by email or mail. However, OCCUPANT may elect to pay an additional fee listed in the attached as an Invoice Fee to receive a monthly bill.  

c.  NSF Fee:  If any check is dishonored for any reason, said late charges shall be due and payable in addition to a return check charge identified in the attached as an NSF Fee.

d.  Foreclosure/sale Fee:  If OCCUPANT’s property is processed for sale at public auction, OCCUPANT shall be responsible for a minimum public auction processing fee shown in the attached as a Foreclosure/sale Fee.

e.  Lock Cut Fee:  If OCCUPANT’s lock must be cut, OCCUPANT shall be responsible for Lock Cut Fee identified in the attached.

f.  Other Fees:  Other fees charged to OCCUPANT may be contained in Addendums to this Agreement. 

All service charges, administrative fees, default notice charges, late charges, court costs and attorneys’ fees together with all other fees and charges set forth in this Agreement incurred by OWNER in connection with the enforcement of the Agreement shall be deemed “additional rent” payable by OCCUPANT to OWNER as provided in the Agreement and all such items of “additional rent” shall also be subject to the imposition of applicable sales tax as set forth in the Agreement.  All Fees are non-refundable.

 

7. OWNER’S RIGHT TO ENTER SPACE.  In cases where the OWNER considers it necessary to enter the SPACE for purposes of examining the SPACE for violations of this Agreement or conditions in the SPACE, or for making repairs or alterations thereto, or to otherwise comply with this Agreement, the OCCUPANT agrees that the OWNER, or the OWNER’s representative, shall have the right without notice to enter into the SPACE and to remove contents to another space, and continue to store such contents at the sole cost and expense of the OCCUPANT.

 

8.  USE OF SPACE; COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. OCCUPANT agrees to use the SPACE only for storing household or business items that OCCUPANT owns. OCCUPANT agrees not to use the SPACE for: (a) residential use; (b) cooking; (c) sleeping; (d) drinking of alcoholic beverages; (e) consuming or manufacturing drugs; (f) in any way that violates any local, county, state or federal law.  OCCUPANT agrees not to store at the SPACE: (a) foodstuffs; (b) animals; (c) perishable goods; (d) hazardous substances; (e) flammable materials; (f) explosives; (g) property with sentimental value or emotional attachment; (h) anything that would violate any local, state or federal law.  OWNER is not responsible if OCCUPANT does not follow this Agreement and OWNER removes and sells property in the SPACE: (a) upon which a prior lien has attached; or (b) which is not the property of OCCUPANT. If OCCUPANT intends to store motor vehicles or boats, OCCUPANT must sign the addendum for Motor Vehicles and Boats.  The OCCUPANT agrees that the SPACE is not appropriate for the storage of jewels, furs, heirlooms, art works, collectibles or other irreplaceable items having special sentimental or emotional value to the OCCUPANT and OCCUPANT agrees not to store said items.  The OCCUPANT hereby waives any claim for sentimental or emotional value for the OCCUPANT’s property that is stored in the SPACE or on the PREMISES.  If hazardous substances are stored, used, generated, or disposed of in the SPACE or on the PREMISES, or if the SPACE or the PREMISES shall become contaminated in any manner for which the OCCUPANT is directly or indirectly responsible, the OCCUPANT shall indemnify and hold the OWNER harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, fines, judgments, penalties, costs, liabilities, or losses, and any and all sums incurred or paid for settlement of any such claims, including any attorney’s fees, consultant and expert fees, resulting from or arising out of any contamination by the OCCUPANT, whether incurred during or after the lease term. OCCUPANT agrees not to conduct any business out of the SPACE and further agrees that the SPACE is not to be used for any type of work shop, for any type of repairs, or for any sales, renovations, decoration, painting, or other contracting. The OCCUPANT will indemnify and hold the OWNER harmless from and against any and all manner of claims for damages or lost property or personal injury and costs, including attorneys’ fees arising from the OCCUPANT’s lease of the SPACE on the PREMISES or from any activity, work or thing done, permitted or suffered by the OCCUPANT in the SPACE or on or about the PREMISES.

 

9. RETURNED CHECKS. Once OWNER receives two returned checks from OCCUPANT, OCCUPANT agrees to make all future payments: (a) in cash; (b) by money order; (c) by certified check; or (d) by credit card. OCCUPANT agrees to pay OWNER the required NSF Fee for each returned check.

 

10. CONDITION AND ALTERATION OF SPACE.  OCCUPANT assumes responsibility for having examined the SPACE and hereby accepts it as being in good order and condition. OCCUPANT understands that all unit sizes are approximate and enters into this Agreement without reliance on the estimated size of the SPACE. Should OCCUPANT damage or depreciate the SPACE or the self-storage property or improvements, or make alterations or improvements without the prior consent of the OWNER, or require the OWNER to incur costs to clean the SPACE upon termination, then all costs necessary to restore the SPACE to its prior condition shall be borne by OCCUPANT. OWNER has the right to declare any such costs to repair as “rent” and non-payment of said costs to entitle OWNER to deny OCCUPANT access to the SPACE. 

 

11. LIMITATION OF VALUE OF STORED PROPERTY.  The OCCUPANT agrees that in no event shall the total value of all property stored be deemed to exceed $5,000.00 unless the OWNER has given permission in writing for the OCCUPANT to store property exceeding such value.  The OCCUPANT agrees that the maximum value for any claim or suit by the OCCUPANT including but not limited to any suit which alleges wrongful or improper foreclosure or sale of the contents of a storage unit is $5,000.00.  Nothing in this section shall be deemed to create any liability on the part of the OWNER to the OCCUPANT for any loss or damages to the OCCUPANT’s property regardless of cause.

 

12. ENDING THIS LEASE.  This Agreement shall continue from month to month unless the OCCUPANT or OWNER delivers to the other party a written notice of its intention to terminate the Agreement at least five (5) days prior to the end of the then current rental period. OWNER may immediately terminate OCCUPANT’s lease if OCCUPANT is in breach of the Agreement.  Upon termination of this Agreement, the OCCUPANT shall remove all personal property from the SPACE (unless such property is subject to the OWNER’s lien rights as referenced herein), and shall deliver possession of the SPACE to the OWNER on the day of termination.  If the OCCUPANT fails to fully remove its property from the SPACE within the time required, the OWNER, at its option, may without further notice or demand, either directly or through legal process, reenter the OCCUPANT’s SPACE and remove all property therefrom without being deemed guilty in any manner of trespassing or conversion.  All items, including boxes and trash left in the SPACE or on the PREMISES after vacating will be deemed to be of no value to the OCCUPANT and will be discarded by the OWNER at the expense of the OCCUPANT.

 

13. ABANDONMENT. This Agreement shall automatically terminate if the OCCUPANT abandons the SPACE.  The OCCUPANT shall be deemed to have abandoned the SPACE if the OCCUPANT has removed the contents of the SPACE and/or has removed the OCCUPANT’s locking device from the SPACE and is not current in all obligations hereunder.  Abandonment shall allow the OWNER to remove all contents of the SPACE for disposal. OCCUPANT hereby waives and releases any claims or actions against OWNER for disposal of personal property resulting from OCCUPANT’s abandonment. Rent prepaid for any period in which the OCCUPANT moves out early shall not be refunded.

 

14. OWNER RESPONSIBILITY TO OCCUPANT.  THE OWNER IS NOT A WAREHOUSEMAN ENGAGED IN THE BUSINESS OF STORING GOODS FOR HIRE, AND NO BAILMENT IS CREATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.  THE OWNER EXERCISES NEITHER CARE, CUSTODY, NOR CONTROL OVER THE OCCUPANT’S STORED PROPERTY.  ALL PROPERTY STORED WITHIN THE SPACE OR ON THE PROPERTY BY THE OCCUPANT OR LOCATED AT THE FACILITY BY ANYONE SHALL BE STORED AT THE OCCUPANT’S SOLE RISK.
