[quote=moneymaker]EconProf from this link http://www.wimer.net/landlord/a/landlords_rights.pdf it states
“Also, you cannot evict you
while the lease is in effect, except for reasons
such as your damaging the property or failing to
pay rent. A lease gives you and the tenant the security of a
long-term agreement at a known rent.
The disadvantage of a lease is that if the tenant
ends up being undersirable, but complies with
the terms of the lease you must ride out the term.”
I believe marriage is a protected category as far as discrimination goes, so if you want to risk a lawsuit evict away.
My personal take would be if he spends less than half the nights there he is not a tenant.[/quote]
Moneymaker, I thought you were saying if she marries him then the landlord cannot prevent him from moving in with her. What you quoted does not change that. Landlord rented to one person, and he/she cannot be forced to take on another person unwillingly. Also, the extra person adds to utility usage, wear and tear, extra parked car, etc. And what if the new hubby has kids. Can they also be forced upon the landlord?
