Question

i had someone stay over night and my landlord said if i had someone over again he was goning to evict me. Can he do that if not where can i find info on THIS topic

Answer 1

It is doubtful this idiot from the 1800s can evict you. Read your lease. Every state has landlord and tenent laws. Find out who the governing body is and file a complaint against him. Don't let him get away with this. Have friends over every night.

Answer 2

Without knowing where you are, it's impossible to give a precise and complete answer. A landlord cannot usually keep you from having guests, unless they are loud and/or disturb other tenants. This is part of the "right to quiet enjoyment" that comes with a tenancy at common law.

That does not mean the landlord cannot evict you if he chooses, although in many states if he gives that as a reason, he will lose. If he gives no reason, he will eventually get you out.

Answer 3

Unless he put it in your lease, he can not evict you. You need to get on the Internet and on the sites of your State and search for tenants rights. As long as you pay your rent and not disturb the other tenants with lots of noise, in my opinion your landlord is bluffing. You have the right to have people stay over. If he put it in your lease, that you cant have overnight visitors, then you be out of luck. Just don't let anyone intimidate you, you do have rights. It may be illegal to have such a clause in your lease. Good Luck.

Answer 4

Check your lease agreement, but he cannot kick you out if that person only stayed for one night. If your visitor plans on staying longer than that, then you have to notify your landlord. He/She cannot stay more than 30 days without letting your landlord know that they are staying for any longer than 30 days. When we were living in an apartment, we can have friends or relatives stay for at least 30 days, but we had to let the manager know. But, technically, he cannot evict you if your friend only stayed overnight. Again, check your lease agreement.

Answer 5

It is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of! The landlord has no right to evict you on this ground! You are not staying in a hotel or serviced apartment, are you? If not, you are paying rent for the apartment, not based on number of people occupying the flat! The landlord's stand is not tenable in any court of law!

Answer 6

You can't be evicted for having an occasional overnight guest.

Your landlord sounds like a busybody who feels like they have a right to get involved in your life. They don't have that right, no matter what they think.

Answer 7

It depends on the conditions of your lease and what other events occdured while that person was at your place. Local laws vary, check with the legal aide society in your area. Until then, play it safe and don't have anyone stay over.

Answer 8

Before doing anyhting, check you lease/rental agreement; there me be a clause in there that prohibits overnight guests and/or roomates. Otherwise, check for your Renter's Rights Advocacy Group, usually you can find that number in your local city hall or state capital. Good Luck

Answer 9

Well if it is in your lease agreement and you signed they dotted line , he has you there. If it's not, check with an atty. Usually you can get a free consultation. However you may want to find another place to live.

Answer 10

I've had that in my lease before. He can do whatever he wants if its in the lease, so read it. I assume it's to prevent squatters, or maybe he charges higher rates when there is more than one occupant. Anyway, you both signed the same contract, so you both have to abide by it. It protects you too.
