Features: This book is primarily divided into two main parts in terms of content: Part one discusses the general legal provisions of leasing, explaining the legal nature of immovable property leasing and the basic responsibilities of the parties involved. The content mainly revolves around relevant academic debates, such as the formation of lease agreements, the legal binding force of lease agreements on third parties, and the termination of contracts, among others. Additionally, this part dedicates a separate chapter to the property rights transfer of registered and unregistered land tenure lease agreements, as well as typical issues in short-term leases. Part two focuses on the specific legal provisions of leasing, primarily exploring the legal protection of lessee rights. This part covers numerous relevant legal provisions that provide institutional safeguards for the protection of lessee rights from various perspectives. These laws supplement the content of Part one, and the resulting institutional overlaps are inevitable. For example, a lessee may be protected under the housing act but will still be required to comply with all the terms of the lease agreement, otherwise, they may face the risk of being "evicted from the land." These regulations also cover housing accommodation, as well as agricultural and commercial leasing issues.
