Breaking a tenancy contract by the landlord for non-registration with Ejari
5
Q: Hello,
I have rented my warehouse in Al Qouz (Dubai) for 2 months ago, and my tenant still didn't do Ejari register and so many registers that are the responsibility of the tenant.
I have reminded them so many times and I don't want to get a fine from the government.
The reason I have sent you a message is that I really want to know if there's any chance that I can terminate my client contract.
I have some client who is willing to take the place and pay me a better price.
Can anyone advise me about this matter?
Best regards,

إخطار المستأجر بعدم تجديد عقد الإيجار نظرًا لانخفاض مبلغ الإيجار
1
س: السلام عليكم،
لدي عقار بمنطقة الخليج التجاري بدبي مؤجَّر وعقد الإيجار ينتهي بعد 56 يومًا من اليوم.
ليس لدي رغبة في تجديد العقد نظرًا لارتفاع الأسعار بحوالي 15 ألف درهم عن سعر الإيجار بالعام الماضي والزيادة القانونية للتجديد ستكون 10% فقط وهذا قليل جدًا نظرًا إلى أن العقد ينص على إرسال الإشعار قبلها بـ60 يومًا.
كيف يمكنني إخطار المستأجر بعدم الرغبة في التجديد؟ وما الطريقة القانونية لذلك؟ وما المترتب على هذا؟
ولكم جزيل الشكر!

تجديد عقد الإيجار بنفس شروط السنة السابقة
2
س: السلام عليكم،
يرفض المؤجِّر تجديد عقد الإيجار بنفس الشروط السابقة بالرغم من عدم إخطاري بتغيير أي بند من العقد قبل 3 أشهر، بل قبلها بشهر، ويريد مني الإمضاء على ورقة تجديد بتاريخ قديم على السعر الجديد.
رفضت استلام الورقة لأنها غير قانونية والتاريخ غير صحيح. أريد الآن تجديد عقد الإيجار ورفعت دعوى عرض وإيداع ولكن لم يتم الرد من المؤجِّر ووافق القاضي على طلب العرض والإيداع وتم إغلاق الدعوى.
ماذا أفعل الآن لتجديد العقد؟

س: السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته،
يوجد مستأجر سُجن بسبب قضية وحاليًا تسكن الشقة زوجته وابنه وهي تدفع الأجرة بدون أي تأخير. انتهى العقد.
هل يمكن تجديد عقد الإيجار تحت اسم الزوج وزوجته توقع مكانه؟ أم يجب ترك العقد بدون توقيع؟ أم يجب إبرام عقد إيجاري جديد باسم الزوجة وفي هذه الحالة يمكن تغيير الشروط والأحكام والقيمة الإيجارية؟
أرجو منكم الإجابة!
