My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Hawaii
I clearly understand the state landlord-tenant law (HRS 452 I think), but I read the our lease in some areas and its wording is much more convoluted. The lease form was downloaded off the internet. Should it follow the state law or is the state law a minimum definition? I'm trying figure out what takes precedence if one is more restrictive than the other. For example the law defines what sort of entry rights the landlord has and what the tenant is responsible for if he/she defaults, etc. What do you follow if both address the same issue but have different actions? Thanks.
