If it is not something that is listed in their lease then they should not be allowed to impose on people's lives like that. I think the tenant did the right thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925083506007528221.post-36865534466671903272011-11-23T15:33:21.066-05:002011-11-23T15:33:21.066-05:00I believe a Landlord should be able to insert such...I believe a Landlord should be able to insert such clauses in the Lease.

But I think you'd have to err on the side of the tenant - at lease the children have a (I'm assuming) safe place to stay at that point.Apartment Renterhttp://www.apartmentrenter.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925083506007528221.post-47807928209565046272011-10-11T13:42:25.893-04:002011-10-11T13:42:25.893-04:00Being that I have been in the business long enough...Being that I have been in the business long enough to know that you cannot believe everything people say I don't think this is fair of the landlord. What one person says about the child might not necessary hold true to the actual behavior that the child is exhibiting. I would be furious if such a request was made to me and I find it to be offensive at the very least. Move them in, if they pose a problem then deal with it accordingly. What if the kid just wants someone to come over and play video games with him? And if he didn't have this company then he would be out breaking branches off tree limbs and climbing mailboxes or something.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2925083506007528221.post-51907540283904627732011-09-19T22:21:16.995-04:002011-09-19T22:21:16.995-04:00I think landlords should be able to impose such re...I think landlords should be able to impose such restrictions if they want to. After all, they are the ones who own the house and the son is not an adult yet. The mother has a right to sign the agreement or to not sign it. That being said, it is a bit extreme and he will have time finding tenants that will sign with the restriction.Property Tax Loanshttp://www.genesistax.comnoreply@blogger.com
