Can my boyfriend moved into my rented house?
Moving your partner into your privately rented home Get permission, in writing, from your landlord before the other person moves in. You could be breaking your tenancy agreement if you don’t get your landlord’s permission. Your landlord could use this as a reason for evicting you in the future.
How do you ask your landlord if your boyfriend can move in?
Assuming there is nothing prohibiting additional bodies from occupying said space, you simply say “I’ll be needing another lease application please, as my partner would like to move in on (date).” LL has the right to refuse partner if they do not pass the criminal background or credit check.
Can I rent a house and have someone else live there?
You can rent an apartment and share it with your friends, living there together as co-signers who help pay the rent. You would all be considered “tenants” on your lease and would be listed accordingly. If you rent an apartment and allow someone to live there who is not on the lease, this would be considered illegal.
What’s the difference between a tenant and an occupant?
Tenants sign a contract containing terms that bind them to certain obligations under the lease. The lease agreement is between the landlord and tenant only. Occupants are authorized to reside in the property with the landlord’s permission.
Can you add someone to the lease later?
Some California lease agreements are written and some verbal. Landlords are not obligated to modify leases; therefore, they may use requests to add tenants to negotiate other new lease terms. However, you and your landlord must agree on such new changes.
Does a roommate have to be on the lease?
No, but a landlord usually requires that everyone who is living in a rental unit be named on the lease agreement – either as a tenant or occupant. Landlords have the right to know how many people are living in the rental unit and who is living in it.
Can I push my move in date back?
No. You start paying rent on the day that is on the lease. As long as you pay rent and meet all the terms of the lease, the landlord doesn’t really care if you move in on the 1st, the 15th or whatever. If you want to move in earlier, you’d have to contact the landlord and see if the apartment will be ready earlier.
