Can the landlord charge me more rent because my kids stay with me on weekends?

Question

Accepted Answer

You are allowed to have guests stay with you. E.g., you might have your children or a boyfriend to stay on weekends, or a grandparent come to visit. You can have more people staying at your place than the tenancy agreement allows, as long as the extra people are just guests. Your landlord can’t charge you an extra fee for having guests to stay. Ask me more about rent increases if they say they want to increase the rent for having guests.
