Re: Apartment 4 Rent
Landlord has no authority to secure duplicate keys. He can only arrange visit schedules upon reasonable notice. Landlord is not harboring a criminal. Landlord is not required by law to get Alien Certificate of Registration from tenant. Rental can increase on residential areas but should not be more than 20% because the 7T rental is covered by Rent Control Law. Background check is an option of the Lessor. There is no law regulating this conduct.
