Hi All,
We rent a room to a girl in our primary residence, signed a lease agreement etc. The girl asked if her boyfriend can stay over now and again before any lease was signed etc and I said no problem. It seems that he is living in the room constantly now. He stays there when she goes to work etc (don't even know if he works). The lease agreement was for herself only and I don't mind her having him over but it was made clear that the room was for one person only and the rent is only for one person.
Has anyone encountered this situation before? I know I can evict them as she is only there less than a month but obviously don't want to go down that road. Should I have made it more clear in the lease that someone can stay a max of 3 days a week? I know nothing about this guy although I have vetted her references etc.
Any thoughts welcome.
