As the thread title states, i live in a condo. My upstairs neighbor reached out to me to ask if i'd be interested in renting out my parking space. While i do have a parking space, i don't have a car. I mainly got it so that if i had company over there'd be a bit less of an issue finding parking spaces. Currently, though.... yeah, not seeing company for obvious reasons.
I already looked around to figure out how much i could charge, so at least i know where to start the negotiations. I figure i would need to draft a contract for this, though. I figure i can probably find a template somewhere but in case it could be made easier, anyone know a good source for that sort of thing, knowing i live in Canada?
Also, aside from a basic contract, anything i should know? I definitely don't want to do this in a bad way.
Thanks in advance!

I've never done this before, so there may be some other things you need to take into account.

Additionally even if you own it is there anything in the condo agreement/rules/by-laws that talks about this directly? If not is there anything that could be interpreted by an asshole to cover this even if it's obvious that's not what the condo agreement/rules/by-laws are actually speaking to?
I'm not in Canada but I suspect there's no law against it. What might be against it is the rules for your particular lease/building.

As always make sure to get any agreement in writing and have specific dates spelled out instead of durations. IE from October 12th 2020 to October 12th 2021. Let them know that after that period is up it becomes your space which you can have them towed from. I don't know what the standards are for Canadian contracts though.
2. Ask if they for any reason have a standard form for this kind of contract?
3. If they don't have a ready contract, write one. It should specify
