Ahh...thanks and sorry for the confusion.




If this is the case, and you both agree on the terms, then certainly you can modify the contract. A contract can be modified at any time, so long as both parties to the contract agree on the change.




Now, if you want the lease to apply to the past...you use the term "backdate" but if you are going to draft this now...but you want it to apply retroactively, it would be a good idea to put a clause in the lease, perhaps at the end, stating what your doing. If you both agree today on the terms but you want them to extend back 6 months, just write that at the bottom of the lease prior to you both signing it.






Please let me know if you have further questions; if so I will do my best to answer them. If not please hit the accept button, its the only way I get credit for my work.
