We reject appellants’ contention that simple principles of contract law dictate that the agreement they signed at the behest of the DDA1 created a property interest in remaining in possession of their apartments until October 30, 1985. This agreement is simply an acknowledgment that limits the right of possession to the terms of any oral lease agreement and the potential length of occupation to a specified period. It does not create in the tenant any interest not already established by the oral agreement.
