Hawaii Residential Lease Agreement

A residential lease agreement in Hawaii sets the rent, the term, and each party's responsibilities in writing. Hawaii caps security deposits at 1 month's rent and requires the deposit back within 14 days after move-out (Haw. Rev. Stat. 521-44).

This template walks you through every clause a Hawaii lease should cover: parties, property, rent and due date, security deposit, maintenance, and house rules. Download the finished lease in Word and PDF.

Answer guided questions about the parties, the property, the rent, and the deposit, and the lease writes itself in front of you. Select Hawaii as the property's state and the agreement is captioned accordingly.
