Overnight Guest Limits Clarified

Summary

Exceeding overnight guest limits can lead to eviction if it violates lease terms. Landlords cannot change lease terms without tenant agreement during the lease period. For tenancy at will, changes require written notice at least one full rental period in advance. Limiting overnight guests is generally reasonable for safety and maintenance. Unreasonable actions lack rational basis and fairness. Conduct a case-by-case analysis by detailing your situation, researching similar cases, and consulting a legal professional. Courts usually recognize lawfully drafted POAs, but acceptance varies by jurisdiction and case. For specific advice, consult a local attorney or tenant rights organization.
