Terms Used In Kansas Statutes 58-2532

  • Landlord: means the owner, lessor or sublessor of the dwelling unit, or the building of which it is a part, and it also means a manager of the premises who fails to disclose as required by Kan. See Kansas Statutes 58-2543
  • Lease: A contract transferring the use of property or occupancy of land, space, structures, or equipment in consideration of a payment (e.g., rent). Source: OCC
  • Lien: A claim against real or personal property in satisfaction of a debt.
  • Property: includes personal and real property. See Kansas Statutes 77-201
  • Tenant: means a person entitled under a rental agreement to occupy a dwelling unit to the exclusion of others. See Kansas Statutes 58-2543

The foregoing lease conditions and requirements are variant from the ordinary and generally used and approved rental agreements between landlord and tenant in the particulars above mentioned, are harsh, burdensome, oppressive and extortionate in their terms, and are entered into by necessitous persons only because of the scarcity of other rental lands. On account of the pledge of lien by the tenant to the landlord of the tenant’s crops, teams, and all his or her other property the tenant is deprived of credit with merchants and banks for the purchase of the comforts and conveniences of ordinary farm life, his or her children deprived of educational advantages, and himself or herself and family kept impoverished in condition and estate.
