Free, Alberta-compliant lease templates for landlords and tenants. Download, customize, and use — no sign-up required.
Why Alberta leases are different
Unlike Ontario and British Columbia — which provide government-mandated standard lease forms — Alberta has no required standard form. Landlords are free to draft their own rental agreements. This flexibility can be valuable, but it also means landlords must ensure their leases comply with the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) on their own.
These templates are designed to give Alberta landlords a compliant, professional starting point. They cover the most common tenancy types and scenarios. Each can be customized to fit your property.

Eight document types covering the most common Alberta tenancy situations.
Fixed-Term Lease Agreement
Standard 6-month or 1-year lease. Most common for apartments and houses with a defined end date.
Month-to-Month Tenancy Agreement
Periodic tenancy with no fixed end date. Flexible for both parties — either can end with proper notice.
Room Rental Agreement
For renting a room in a shared house. Covers shared spaces, utilities, and house rules.
Sublease Agreement
For tenants subletting their unit. Requires written landlord consent in Alberta.
Pet Addendum
Add-on for any lease covering pet policies, damage deposits, and breed or weight restrictions.
Move-In / Move-Out Inspection Checklist
Document the condition of the unit at move-in and move-out. Protects both landlord and tenant.
