SUMMARY
The forum discussion centers on the validity of a rent agreement that contains discrepancies, such as incorrect gender references and signature issues. Participants agree that minor mistakes, like the use of "Ms" instead of "Mr," do not invalidate the contract, as long as the signatory's full name is present. However, they emphasize the importance of rectifying any errors to avoid potential legal complications. It is recommended to have a new contract drafted to ensure clarity and legal protection.
