Depending on circumstances, in Ohio it’s usually possible to have a lease of any length of time, as long as the length of the lease term is specific and agreed in writing by the landlord and tenant (although there are increased requirements, like notarization, for leases of 3 years and longer). Oral leases can almost never be for a term of more than one year.
