Make sure you get one for your state, possibly your county. Check the local landlord's trade group or call a local real estate lawyer. The reason is local laws differ and a generic template is worthless if something bad happens, which is why you have the contract in the first place. You can get one on-line too, but I'll be wary when it comes to legal forms.

I agree with the respondents who recommended a state specific lease. I use one from the Greater Boston Real Estate Board. They aren't much money and they hold up well in court. You don't give the appearance (in the judge's view) of trying to pull a fast one on your tenants by adding a specific clause that isn't typical. Also, I think that new tenants are more comfortable when they see that it is a "standard" lease as opposed to one that I created myself. Good Luck!

Try MS Office online -- using Word. Or just Google: sample rental lease.

Office depot and Staples both sell blank leases that work good in a pinch.

National Association for Independent landlords: http://www.nail-usa.com/
This website has a load of free forms & services for renters & rentees. I've used several forms from this site myself when renting out rooms or properties.
