I most definitely would not sign a contract drawn up by the other side without my Attorney reading it - the contract is not going to favor you. You would both pay your own counsel.

As far as interest - the landlord is receiving, you are paying so he will set the interest rates. Not that you can't negotiate but usually you want to pay less and he wants to receive more.
