Landlords, who are representing individuals or agencies managing property, are bound by contracts and laws. This may vary for any location and also depends on the type of real estate being managed, as described above. In Hawaii, landlords are bound the Hawaii Revised Statute (HRS 521), which defines legal guidelines for the landlord to abide by. Besides providing livable conditions and rental agreements to tenants of the property, landlords have assumed other responsibilities over time. It is common practice for a landlord to maintain financial records of a rental agreement, as well as being the point of contact for renters. Also, providing services to fill vacant units and overseeing legal actions, such as evictions and collection processes, may be included. The specific terms and conditions of a particular agreement will be defined in contracts drafted between property owners and the respective parties (renters, management companies, government, etc).

The responsibilities of the landlord are to keep the rental and the building safe and habitable; supplying water, doing regular repairs, etc. The landlord has the right to the rent money and still holds rights to the apartment, even though there is a tenant. that doesn't mean that the landlord can walk right in (unless there is an emergency) but can give notice to come in a inspect the property. The landlord has the right to receive their apartment back in the condition they rented it to you. It should look exactly as it did before you rented it. A landlord has the right to require a security deposit and the right to evict a tenant, as long as they follow a law.
