Rental value

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rental value is the Fair market value of Property while rented out in a lease. More generally, it may be the consideration paid under the lease for the right to occupy, or the royalties or return received by a lessor (landlord) under a license to real property. ^[1] In the science and art of Appraisal, it is the amount that would be paid for rental of similar real property in the same condition and in the same area. ^{[2] [3]}

In a contract lawsuit, the lessor could collect the rental value of the premises from the saloon lessee {tenant) who had violated a lease. ^[4] Usable value is not the same as rental value, but is equivalent, and has been used in a condemnation proceeding. ^[5]

Rental value can also be used in a divorce, separation, or annulment action for equitable distribution, in those states lacking Community property laws.^{[citation needed]}
