What does dirty mean? Generally speaking, landlords can't control how, and when, tenants clean their properties, unless they have a reason to think the tenant is violating health or fire codes, causing damage to themselves, damage to the property, or other people.

A landlord cannot refuse to rent to persons in a protected class. A landlord cannot provide different services or facilities to tenants in a protected class or require a larger deposit, or treat late rental payments differently. A landlord cannot end a tenancy for a discriminatory reason. A landlord cannot harass you.

The guest cannot be barred unless he or she broke the rules of the lease, or broke local, state or federal law. The landlord may tell your guest that they are not allowed to visit you, and may say that they cannot come on the landlord's property at all if it is an apartment complex or mobile home park.

Tip. A lease is automatically void when it is against the law, such as a lease for an illegal purpose. In other circumstances, like fraud or duress, a lease can be declared void at the request of one party but not the other.

A tenancy agreement can normally only be changed if both you and your landlord agree. If you both agree, the change should be recorded in writing, either by drawing up a new written document setting out the terms of the tenancy or by amending the existing written tenancy agreement.

An addendum to a lease is a separate legal document added by the landlord to the original lease agreement between the landlord and a tenant. Lease addenda are used to provide additional information that the original lease does not cover.

A tenancy agreement cannot usually be changed unless both parties agree to the changes. If both parties agree, the change should be recorded in writing either by drawing up a new tenancy agreement or by amending the existing agreement.
