Occupant Acknowledgment Form
you can use alongside the Revocable License Agreement.
This ensures the displaced tenant (the actual occupant) personally acknowledges no tenancy rights are created. It’s short, simple, and very enforceable when attached to the main agreement.

🔑 Why this matters:
- It puts the tenant themselves on record as agreeing “this is not a lease.”
- It helps defend against future claims of tenancy, rent control, or just-cause eviction rights.
- It aligns directly with the THP relocation framework — temporary swing housing, not permanent tenancy.
