landlord should not rush a tenant to sign a lease, and both parties should be very clear about the terms and conditions before either signs the lease. Any agreed-upon changes to a lease should be written into the lease in pen, making sure to cross out any sections that the landlord and tenant agree to remove. Both parties should sign their initials in the margin of the lease near any hand-written changes. Initialing changes serves as evidence that both parties were aware of the changes and agreed to them.
