If on a lease, are written the names of two people, with only one occupying the apartment (the other being the actual person leasing), what are the rules in terms of bringing in a significant other who is NOT on the lease?
The following passage is written as the rider on the lease:
This apartment will be occupied only by those listed below:
John Doe
Jane Doe
"Any increase in occupancy is a violation of the terms of the lease and will, at the landlord's option, render this lease null and void. Should such a violation arise, the tenant(s) will be subject to immediate legal proceedings to vacate the apartment.
Can someone help interpret that for me? Thanks, in advance.
